I also loved the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon, which brings another level of purity and class, offering gorgeous crème de cassis, lead pencil shavings, white flowers, tobacco leaf, vanilla bean, and damp earth-like aromas and flavors. Pure, clean, full-bodied, and just a classy, flawlessly balanced beauty, it has fine tannins, the freshness of the vintage, and a great finish. Enjoy bottles over the coming 15-20 years.

The 2018 cabernet sauvignon is a beast of richness, style, and overall class that easily competes with Napa cabs of the $200+ ilk. 95 points! This monster from the western hills of Yountville is just starting to come of age – with incredible depth and loads of complexity. Black cherries, spiced plums, peonies, graphite, crème de cassis, black licorice, fresh pipe tobacco, and plenty of smooth and sexy curves throughout. This is built to last, but in the five years since harvest – it is starting to strut confidently.
