95 Lisa Perrotti-Brown - The Wine Independent

Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2020 Samantha’s Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep garnet-purple color. Crushed black cherries, black raspberries, and mulberries scents leap from the glass, followed by a profound core of warm cassis, dark chocolate, Indian spices, and menthol with a waft of licorice. The full-bodied palate delivers amazing intensity and brightness with beautiful tension and a grainy texture, featuring loads of black, red, and blue fruit layers, finishing long and minerally. It has that red-fruited, earlier harvest vivacity with nicely ripe tannins—delicious!
