Product Description
LP100 "Deep purple-black colored, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon soars out of the glass with vivacious notions of black currant jelly, juicy blueberries, and fresh, just-ripe blackberries, followed by wonderfully fragrant notes of sandalwood, dark chocolate, tapenade, and Indian spices, with a hint of lilac. The full-bodied palate has compelling tension and perfectly ripe, very finely-grained tannins, supporting layer upon layer of rich black fruits and exotic spices, finishing long and opulent. 500 cases were made."
JD100 "The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is another incredibly brilliant wine from this estate that's up with the greatest wines in the vintage (and the world). From a tiny parcel of very old vines in the To Kalon Vineyard, it reveals a semi-opaque deep purple color to go with an incredible nose of crème de cassis, black olive, iron, tobacco, and lead pencil. As textbook Oakville as it gets with its darker, herbal, yet powerful style, it's medium to full-bodied and has a wonderful sense of elegance and purity, silky tannins, and a great, great finish. It certainly offers incredible pleasure today, as do most 2019s, yet it deserves 4-6 years of bottle age and I suspect will be 30+ year wine. If you get a chance to buy this, do it."
