Lot C-91 Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Some vegetal/menthol notes on the nose. Another fine but not notable wine. Was hoping for a bit more bite tannic backbone. — 10 hours ago

John C. Sullenger Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

David T
9.3

93 that leans into 94 and will see another point or two with 10 years in bottle.

Sofia and I used to go to their futures luncheon for many years. This vineyard consistently yields fruit that makes one of their best Cabernet’s.

It’s lush as it enters and falls onto dry, meaty tannins. Blackberries, creamy black raspberries, black plum with skin, dark cherries & purple fruits. Dry crushed rocks, dry top soil, limestone & volcanic minerals, moist clay, dry tobacco, new, raw leather, still very woody, mixed mid & dark berry cola, plenty of baking spices-clove, nutmeg, cinnamon & vanilla, dark spices with some heat, some dry herbs, dark melted, chocolate, cocoa powder, caramel notes, bright, fresh & candied florals that are dark, red, blue and framed in violets & lavender, ver nice round acidity with a highly structured, tensioned, well balanced and polished finish that lasts 90 seconds but still lands squarely on wood.

Series C Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2019

Firm grip not letting go until after a long lingering finish. Just when you thought you had wrestled yourself free you made the mistake of subconsciously taking that next sip and the struggle started all over again with that vibrant, concentrated dark extract of dark black berry and currants soaked in fine grained tannins and earth…ancient earth that is. Still very young as the layers unfold slowly and shyly but so promising. Check our YouTube video to
