2018 Chateau Ste. Michelle Cabernet Sauvignon Ethos Reserve

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Ethos is also all Cabernet and was brought up in 49% new French oak. It has impressive cassis and darker black raspberry fruits intermixed with spicy oak, lead pencil, and subtle background tobacco and spice. I love its texture, and it's medium to full-bodied, with ripe, polished tannins, beautiful balance, and a great finish. Drink this elegant, classic, impeccably made Washington State Cabernet Sauvignon over the coming 15-20 years.
