Edge Hill
Mt. Veeder Abel 1833 Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
09’ Edge Hill Abel 1833 Mount Veeder. Ruby red in color with a slight purpleish rim. Unlike the O’shaughnesy this wine is close to a PNP. Dark black fruits, tobacco, mint, herbs. The acidity is still apparent 4/10 The tannins have all but melted away in this cab/blend? Has become quite beautiful/seamless. Don’t see this getting any better. Drink them up in the next 5 - 10 years.

Wow!!!!!! Opened this alongside a 2009 Insignia and everyone agrees this was light years beyond it.
I'm a huge fan of Edge Hill's entire lineup 😍

09' Edge Hill Abel Mt. Veeder Cabernet.
We had a couple of these in my cellar. Yesterday another one appeared on my doorstep. Thank you @Martin G Rivard
So naturally, I had to pop a bottle tonight!
Dark brick red. Moderate sediment. I poured a small glass & decanted the rest of it. After an hour of decanting..I get a little of everything. Black fruits, dark blueberries, black licorice, mint?, coffee, toasted barrel, chocolate. I haven't QUITE tasted anything like this before. Excellent!! This must be a Cabernet blend? Drinking wonderfully now. Many great years in front of it.

Needed every bit of the 6 hour bottle air that I gave it. Bright burning intensity. Definitely early but outstanding!

A giant infant with an incredible life ahead. Mountain blueberry nose with a slight tobaccy nose.
