It’s the 2019 “Vicarious” Cabernet Sauvignon produced by Modus Operandi Cellars. Made by Jason Moore. IF you can find it- get it. $40 range (?) and as good as I’ve ever had at that price point. While hints of oak find their way to the nose, it’s the body that brings this one home. Rich, full and ever-growing on the palate, As it breathes the finish itself grows and leaves behind it a silky, surprisingly lush array of cassis, stewed cherry, and a texture that’s not often found in Cabs from Cali. Particularly at this price.
