"Starting with the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, it’s a no-brainer purchase that offers loads of ripe darker, currant-like fruits as well as textbook Cabernet tobacco and graphite. More forward, supple, and ready to go compared to the Reserve, it’s medium to full-bodied, balanced, and has beautiful richness as well as elegance. Drink it over the coming decade."
Product Description:
The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon shows off an admirable tightrope balancing act of dark complex fruit and structured tertiary notes. In the glass, the wine displays a completely opaque dark purple hue with a garnet halo. Moving in for a closer inspection, aromatic notes emerge in waves, suggesting boysenberry paste, toasted cedar, black licorice and cocoa nib. The palate has a dynamic fruit core layered with notes of pomegranate, cassis, star anise, lavender and nutmeg. While the center of the palate expresses the most fruit, there is also a finely integrated tannin frame on the periphery, providing excellent support, leading into the mouth-watering floral finish that lasts for over a minute. With a good decant this wine will fully open up and reveal all. ~ Thomas Rivers Brown, Winemaker
