Note di degustazione
A virile, powerful wine, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon has good depth and textural richness. Dark cherry, smoke, leather, licorice and tobacco flesh out nicely in the glass to give the wine attractive nuance. Overall, though, the 2014 comes across as a bit heavy and also forward, especially in its aromas. I would prefer to drink it sooner rather than later.

Even better is the spectacular 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged 20 months in 80% new French oak, this is 100%Cabernet Sauvignon, but is a smaller cuvée of only 524 cases. The wine has plenty of cedary, Christmas fruitcake notes intermixed with licorice, blackcurrants, dusty/earthy undertones and a touch of background smoke and oak. Its tannins are soft, the acidity low and the wine round, concentrated and compelling. Drink it over the next 15-20 years.
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is a dense, opulent wine. Inky, super-ripe dark fruit, mocha, chocolate, spice, new leather and espresso are all amped up. This opulent, full-throttle Cabernet is not exactly subtle. In fact, it is pretty over the top in terms of richness. Even so, the 2014 has aged quite well.
