94+ ST. "(Includes 4% Petit Verdot): Good deep ruby. Rich, complex aromas and flavors of cassis, black raspberry, mocha and truffle, lifted by mineral and violet notes. Rich, plush and fine-grained; wonderfully round and layered in the mouth. For such a lush, deep wine, this cabernet boasts outstanding grip and verve. Really echoes in the mouth and on the long, classically dry aftertaste, where the tannins coat the teeth without leaving any impression of dryness. Terrific cabernet, perhaps the most complete wine to date from Vineyard 29." Vinous, May 2013 |
