Note di degustazione
I loved the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Red Mountain, which has classic Red Mountain minerality and structure while staying perfectly balanced and elegant. Offering both red and blue fruits as well as notes of smoked tobacco, crushed stone, graphite, and white flowers, this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a seamless, layered mouthfeel, building tannins, and one heck of a great finish. It's another stunning wine in this lineup. Hide bottles for 4-5 years if you can, and it should keep for 20-25 years.

Submitted as a barrel sample, the 2019 Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon displays an oaky and red-spiced nose with notes of plum pie and graham cracker. Full-bodied, the wine offers slightly less weight and texture on the mid-palate than in previous vintages and ends with a softer, dusty red-fruit finish. Only 2,500 bottles were filled after the wine rested in 70% new French oak. Given the mouthfeel and usage of new French oak, I feel this will be a lighter style wine when released, making it an outlier in a vertical tasting. I look forward to revisiting this bottle closer to its release date.
