Product Description
JD99 "More blue fruits as well as blackcurrants, leafy tobacco, chocolate, candied flowers, and baking spices all emerge from the 2018 Hexameter, and it's full-bodied, with an incredibly pure, seamless texture, polished tannins, and one heck of a great, great finish. While this is unquestionably a mountain wine, with a building sense of minerality, it has a rare sense of elegance and purity, flawless balance, and is just a heavenly, singular wine. Based on 51% Cabernet Franc, 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Petit Verdot, aged 20 months in 65% new French oak, it will evolve for 25-30 years."JD Apr 2021
AG98 "The 2018 Hexameter is quite reticent today. Dried flowers, sweet red cherry, mint, spice and lavender lend striking nuance to this Cabernet Franc-based blend. The aromatics are simply mesmerizing. Veins of supporting tannin give the wine terrific energy and tons of verve, but the best is very clearly yet to come." AG for VM Jan 2022
