Similarly hued, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Red Mountain (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) is a softer, more charming, forward wine offering beautiful crème de cassis and black raspberry-like fruits, medium to full body, beautifully integrated, classy oak, sweet tannins, and a great finish. It's not as structured or concentrated as the Blackwood Canyon Vineyard release, but it will still drink beautifully for 10-15 years.

Wine Spectator

Broad-shouldered yet rich and polished, with deep blackberry flavors accented with bitter chocolate, clove and coffee bean as this persists toward medium-grained tannins. Drink now through 2030. 980 cases made.
