2018 Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
2018 Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
$145.00
The 2018 Vine Cliff Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep garnet-purple color. It prances out of the glass with scents of stewed plums, warm cassis, bay leaves and cedar chest. Suggestions of cinnamon stick and sandalwood with a waft of tobacco leaf rounds out the nose. The medium to full-bodied palate is coated with juicy black fruits and a plush texture; offering oaky accents and a herbal lift to finish.
93 Points!! Wine Spectator (October 2021):
Dark and winey, with a beam of steeped black currant, açaí reduction and melted black licorice notes that are compressed together seamlessly, supported by a terrific loamy spine. Ends with a flourish of warm earth and smoldering tobacco. Leans to heft rather than purity, but can't be denied. Best from 2022 through 2036.
91 Points!! Robert Parker (November 2020):
