Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Oakville, Napa Valley, California, USA
2016 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 1.5 hours. Throwing a small amount of clumpy sed. Medium/medium-heavy body. Graphite/lead + just dampened earth in the nose. Well-framed tannins balanced nicely with chocolate, plum, cherry, cassis notes. Tasted the 2023 Bevan Cellars Tench a few days ago (9.4) and it added an unnecessary voluptuous layer/weight. This was intrinsically more satisfying and perceived pure. Still on the ascent to the top of the slide. Yes she is. Yes she is. Look out cause here she comes. Hehe. 08.24.25.

Such an intriguing wine! 14.5 ABV, comes in hot on open. Bay leaf, swisher sweet/cedar aromas. Black plum, anise and vanilla mid palate. The most plush and long finish . Awesome wine! #dumol
