2018 COL SOLARE CABERNET SAUVIGNON RED MOUNTAIN
"An outstanding wine from this great vintage, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is an inspired blend of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc that was aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak prior to bottling. Right away this appeals with an evocative bouquet of rich dark fruits with coffee grounds and sweet pipe tobacco, alongside scorched earth undertones that make this very classically Red Mountain. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long finish, this deep and concentrated effort is already nicely evolved and will surely cellar well over the next fifteen years."
