Aging: 16 months in French oak barrels (30% new)

Tasting Notes: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Lush and fleshy, with cassis, boysenberry, and blackberry notes guided by hints of alder and mesquite. Stays open but defined through the finish, with a buried hint of sweet tobacco. A rich, layered beast, this has a nose rife with currants, blackberries, vanilla, and light toast with flavors of mocha, plum, and Bing cherry that mingle harmoniously on the tongue.

Reviews

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Cask #28 is much more refined and elegant than the oversized, tannic 2018 version. Hints of sage and bay accent black cherries and redcurrants on the nose, while the palate is medium to full-bodied, silky, and fine, with a lingering, seductive finish.~93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
