Lot 400
2020 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon

Squid ink black in the glass, the meaty, dense and tightly wound bouquet takes a couple minutes to open up. But open it does offering first a lovely array of blackberry jam, blackcurrants, gravel, licorice, and toasty oak. As the bouquet builds in the glass, spicy lavender, lilac perfume and vibrant morello cherry halo crème de cassis and dense, chocolatey black forest cake as the bouquet builds in the glass. Fantastic mouthfeel is combined with a massive, palate-staining structure but the amazingly silky texture and remarkable finesse keeps things graceful and elegant. Rich, decadent and bombastic yet plush, elegant, silky and seamless - what more could one ask for? This is just pure deliciousness that will drink well now and over the next decade or more!
