Stephen Brook

Tasting: Napa & Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon

Rich blackberry nose, quite vibrant. Good attack, ripe and succulent, with fine concentration of fruit, big ripe tannins, and a sturdy structure. The acidity is modest while the alcohol is quite high, but there’s just about enough fruit to balance that heat. Good length, chocolaty finish.

Yohann Jousselin MS

Tasting: Napa & Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon

Great elegance, showing a great structure. Good tannins which are starting to integrate well and lovely acidity.

David Motion

Tasting: Napa & Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon

Spicy oak in nose. Very silky mouthfeel. Juicy and powerful. Needs time for the elements to knit together.
