Surprised by the relative freshness this had. Given the background of this wine, I expected more richness, concentration. Curious is this is a vineyard quality or vintage imprint, possibly just needs some time as well. Nose is ripe, black and blue, spice laden and floral, almost reminiscent of CF in the blend. Palate is less ripe, driven more by high quality cooperage than varietal to me. Very pretty though, called western bench 2014 CS/CF blend.

Alejandro Bulgheroni is a visionary with estates from Chubut to the Uruguayan Coast to Tuscany. His second Napa vintage, made by Melka, is impeccable. Structured, polished, medicinal - a name to watch for sure

A rich, voluptuous beauty, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Alejandro Bulgheroni has turned out beautifully. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, mocha, licorice and spice notes are pushed forward in a racy, voluptuous Cabernet that hits all the right notes. Silky tannins add to the wine's plush, racy personality. Raspberry jam and lifted, floral notes add striking perfume on the expressive finish. What a gorgeous wine this is. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, March 2018)
