Note di degustazione
From two blocks (7 and 4), the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard is just gorgeous, with a lifted, pure cassis and blue fruit character intermixed with background floral, chocolate, and graphite notes. Based on 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and aged 21 months in 64% new French oak, it's medium to full-bodied and has remarkable concentration, ripe tannins, and a pure, precise, focused style that's common from this vineyard. It deserves 4-6 years of bottle age and will see its 30th birthday in fine form. Drink 2029-2055.

The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard is a very sexy, polished wine. Dark cherry/plum fruit, lavender, spice, menthol, orange peel and pomegranate all meld together in the glass. This mid-weight, sophisticated Cabernet should drink well with minimal cellaring.
Normally a blend of three vineyard blocks, Tor's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch is perfumed and floral on the nose, accentuated by a base of black cherries and cassis. The most dark-fruited of the Tor offerings, it's full-bodied and concentrated, rich without being heavy, with a long, supple finish boasting attractive hints of licorice.
The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard is superb. Dark and vibrant in the glass, the 2023 captures all the pedigree of this great site and yet also remains light on its feet. Sage, lavender, mint, bay leaf and mocha lead into a core of dark-fleshed fruit. This rich, distinctive Cabernet is terrific. Huge swaths of youthful tannin wrap it all together.
