Note di degustazione
Hints of sage, bay leaf and tobacco accent cassis and black cherries on the nose of the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate. A big, full-bodied but well-mannered red, it's concentrated and velvety, almost plush but with enough backbone to suggest cellaring at least a few years. It builds in complexity on the finish, adding nuances of cedar, dried herbs and perhaps a touch of menthol. Yes, it aged 26 months in 100% new French oak, but the wood is remarkably well absorbed and integrated. Impressive!

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is another dense, powerful wine from this estate. Based on 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Spring Mountain, its dense purple/black hue is followed by a layered bouquet of smoky red and black fruits, iron, smoky oak, and chocolate. Full-bodied on the palate, it has a gorgeous mid-palate, building, fine-grained tannins, and a great finish. I followed this bottle for multiple days, and it gained complexity and elegance with air. Do your best to hide bottles for 3-5 years, and it’s going to have 20+ years of overall longevity.
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is plush and sumptuous, yet has enough freshness to balance things out. Dark red plum, raspberry jam, mocha, espresso and a kick of new French oak all meld together. The 2019 saw 40-45 days on the skins, with about 40% of the lots fermented in barrel. Aging was 26 months in French oak, mostly new. This is a terrific example of the house style at its best. (AG)
