Time to back up the truck Cab-lovers, this is sure to be one of our best 2023 Cabernet's! The main component comes to us from the same producer as Lot 38 Coombsville Chardonnay, a finished bottling blend comprised of 80% Coombsville and 20% Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon that sees ~75% new French oak and built for a $200+ price point. (the latter component is not typical of this producer but, apparently, the owner had friends on Howell Mountain with some extra tonnage in 2023). Today this $200+ Cabernet Sauvignon can be yours for just $25/bottle! Inky and semi-opaque in the glass but not quite squid ink. 30-months in barrel has served this wine well as the bouquet is quite open knit and super-sexy already. Ripe blueberry, blackberry and fresh turned black earth are enveloped in chocolate, leather and cedar. With a couple of swirls pretty white flowers, iron and rock complex the ethereal bouquet. Perfectly balanced and smooth on entry with black and blue fruit, chocolate and earth arrayed over open-knit, minerally and big-grained tannins that are both elegant and palate staining at the same time with beautifully attenuated length and tremendous complexity.
