2018 Rivers-Marie Herb Lamb Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb Vineyard stands out in the vintage, reminiscent of a superb Château Margaux. Its exotic bouquet features blue fruits, sandalwood, spring flowers, menthol, and lead pencil shavings. This translates into a powerful, weightless full-bodied wine with building tannins, flawless balance, and a gorgeous finish. While not fruit-forward, it impressively builds on the palate, exhibiting perfect balance and the class to age gracefully for 25-30 years, benefiting from 4-5 years of bottle age.
