Cabernet Sauvignon

Columbia Valley, 75/13/11/1 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec. Dense red, moderators high pigment extraction. Aromas of red fruit, oak on initial pour. Touch of lactic with lengthy fruit flavors, a touch of citric in finish. Some cheek puckering as well. Black and white pepper emerge in finish after 20 minutes, with cherry, alterly tart and sweet, plum and raspberry. Still overly woody to my preferences, though that may change with time; patience. Prickly tannins, skin and perhaps stem, emerge after 90 minutes alongside black currant flavor. Probably worth decanting this, but for how long? I’ll get back to you on that

Cab 34%, 30% Cab Franc, 29% Merlot, 5% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot. Smooth tannins. Vanilla tones.

Very dark. Spices on nose. Black and red fruit, plum and cherry, lots of oak, tobacco, leather, black pepper. Perhaps a bit acidic making mouth pucker. Some airtime is softening it up.

Dark fruits, medium tannin, delicious.
2019 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is delicious
