Winestyr Review

It's rare to find Cabernet Sauvignon with this level of refinement while not sacrificing anything in the power department. There's an esteemed balance of decadent cassis and huckleberry with a savory, herbal, and earthy backbone. The structure here will remind you that cellar time will do wonders for the wine but by no means wait if you enjoy punchy, young Cab. Just decant for a little more than an hour to open things up a bit. 96pts Vinous, 96pts Jeb Dunnuck.
