Tasting notes
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot, 6% Malbec and the rest Merlot and Cabernet Franc) is quality stuff. Currants, seaweed wrapped, damp earth, and a hint of graphite all emerge from this nicely balanced, fresh and lively Cabernet that has good purity of fruit and a clean finish. It’s a classic, balanced wine to drink over the coming 8-10 years.

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa is a blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot, Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It was aged 19 months in one-third new French oak and is one of their bigger cuvées. The wine has a dense ruby/purple color, a classic Cabernet nose of pepper, licorice, a touch of toast, white chocolate, blackberry and cassis. Espresso bean emerges as the wine sits in the glass. It is medium to full-bodied, long, elegant, pure and best drunk over the next 15 or so years.
