Score 92/100 · James Suckling, Jun 2021

Notes of plums, dark berries, blackberry leaves and sweet tobacco. It’s full-bodied with chewy tannins. Concentrated and textured on the palate with fleshy character and a dark, smoky finish. Try in 2022.

The classic 2018 Feather (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) comes from the Weinbau and Wallula Vineyards and spent 22 months in 90% new French oak. It has a wonderfully pure nose of crème de cassis, new saddle leather, dried flowers, and tobacco that carries to a medium to full-bodied, seamless Cabernet with a wonderful sense of purity, balance, and elegance, all while bringing plenty of fruit and structure. I actually like it today, yet it has enough tannins to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and should be long lived.
