"The delicious, fruit-forward, dense purple-colored 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits plenty of roasted espresso notes intermixed with cassis, chocolate and toasty oak. Opulent, full-bodied and unctuously textured, it should continue to drink well . . . . Robert Foley, who became prominent as the winemaker for so many great vintages at Pride Mountain Vineyard, has been on his own for a number of years. His current offerings include three outstanding efforts from the super 2012 vintage."
