Note di degustazione
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Teucer has really come together beautifully over the last year. Rich and sumptuous in the glass, the 2016 exudes tons of textural richness in all of its dimensions. The oak has now integrated well, which allows the dark, jammy fruit to be super-expressive. This is an especially concentrated style, much of that the result of picking on the later side to ensure full physiological ripeness.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Teucer Vineyard struts flamboyant notions of chocolate-covered cherries, black raspberries, kirsch and plum preserves with an undercurrent of blackcurrants, cedar chest, wilted roses and mossy bark plus a touch of espresso. Full-bodied, super concentrated yet perfectly balanced with a rock-solid structure of firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, the palate reveals layer upon layer of black fruit and savory flavors, finishing with epic length and depth and imparting an overall satisfying sense that defies descriptors. Just magic.
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Teucer is presently marked by heavy toasted oak flavors. Even so, there is good depth in the glass and enough layers to make me think time will be a great friend here.
