Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Imagine for a second taking the fruit from Tench which Bevan uses to make a fantastic Bordeaux style wine and give it an artist like Thomas Rivers Brown - I was pleasantly surprised that this Cabernet Sauvignon would be any different than his other cabs which I love but it was - at first I thought it was never going to open and was too bold but at about the 90 minute decant time the wine was incredible- truly a high octane get in your face wine was starting to kick back and just smile - wow to me - some hedonistic characteristics were totally integrating — color was nice deep purple so blue and red currant fruits - smell was prefect - taste was brilliant and the finish was normal otherwise i would have pushed this to 9.6 - this is a bargain and since this is small quantities made it will not last long - will cellar forever
