Note di degustazione
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard was aged for 19 months in French oak barrels, 100% new. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with vibrant scents of black cherries, boysenberries and cassis followed by suggestions of menthol, licorice and tobacco leaf. Medium-full, firm, fine-grained and lively with great intensity and loads of mineral sparks, it finishes with great purity. 1,005 cases were made.

Lots of blueberry and cassis fruit as well as complex notes of white flowers and violets emerge from the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard, and it’s just about pure perfection, with full-bodied richness, elegant tannins, and the purity of fruit and freshness that’s the hallmark of this great vintage. It has plenty of background oak, so if you’re oak averse, give bottles 2-4 years in the cellar. It should keep for two decades.
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard is a blend taken from the front blocks on the property, those that touch the Silverado Trail. It is a classic Bevan wine built on textural opulence and richness. Dark fruit, chocolate, licorice and new leather are some of the many aromas and flavors that build as this flamboyant Cabernet shows off its considerable charms.
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard is a rich, powerful wine. Grilled herbs, blackberry jam, exotic spice and new leather give this bold, dense Cabernet its sense of flamboyance. This is one of the more overt, ripe wines in the range. I imagine it will be pretty stellar right out of the gate.
