Note di degustazione
Red and blue fruits, leafy herbs, spring flowers, and some sandalwood notes emerge from the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Lot C-91, a juicy, medium-bodied, elegant wine that lacks a touch of balance as well as length. I do like its purity of fruit, though, and it's certainly enjoyable.

Wow. Such a racy and exciting nose! This is quite agile and nimble, full of red and blue berries in the forefront, then complemented by spiced orange, earl grey, red plums, potpourri, savory plums and chocolate. Tense and elegant on the palate, which is all about succulent red berries, nuance and texture. Nothing redundant here. A great Napa cabernet sauvignon that has real definition. A beauty by all accounts! Drink or hold.
Originally a blend of single vineyards, including 50% of the volume to come out of Martha's Vineyard, the 2017 Lot C-91 is now a home for borderline lots that don't quite make the single-vineyard bottlings. Marked by notes of black cherries, cassis, restrained oak and a hint of dried herbs, this is full-bodied yet streamlined in shape, with a long, softly dusty finish.
