With 4% Merlot added to the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Red Mountain, the nose is big and juicy, erupting from the glass with a hedonistic profile. Hints of coconut macaroon and crème brûlée linger over the robust fruit-forward finish, accompanied by lasting flavors of black raspberry and blueberry tartlet with an intense vanilla expression. Give it time; your patience will be rewarded. The wine aged for 20 months in 100% new oak and spent an additional 14 months in the bottle. A total of 9,804 bottles were produced.

The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Klipsun Vineyard offers a similar pure purple hue but gives up more crème de cassis, crushed stone, graphite, and spring flower-driven aromas and flavors. With the vintage’s ripe yet more focused, elegant profile, it’s medium to full-bodied, has plenty of tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish. There are enough tannins to warrant 2-4 years of bottle age, and this will see its 20th birthday in fine form.
