The Cabernet Sauvignon Michael Corliss grows in the very best slices of Red Mountain are now so very good, full and complete that there’s no need to add anything else. Other than careful farming, hand picking, meticulous sorting, 22 months in 70% French oak, and lots of time - this 2018 is the current release. Powerful and rich and needing a bit of air to unfurl, the deep black fruit, mocha, spice and smoke flavors keep you coming back for more.
"The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) sports a vibrant purple color to go with a rich, full-bodied, powerful, and well-oaked Cabernet that has beautiful cassis and darker currant fruit, notes of tobacco, espresso, graphite, and crushed stone, beautiful overall balance, building tannins, and a great finish. The purity here is stunning, it has impeccable balance, and it’s just a brilliant Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon that will keep for 25+ years. Bravo."
"The outstanding 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is a blockbuster effort that deftly showcases Red Mountain. Once in the mouth, it evokes a gorgeous sense of balance, viscosity and tension. At the forefront is a massive core of dark and blue fruits that collide with minerals, smoked meats and a light dusting of salinity. This generous wine finishes extremely long. If you are enjoying it in its youth, allow at least a few hours in the decanter for this decadent effort to fully come together."
