Lot 32
2018 Dry Creek Cabernet Sauvignon (91-Points)

Dark in the glass with an electric plum rim. Crazy, almost volcanic-like aromas of graphite, cassis, and red clay slathered with dried herbs, savory crushed plum and blackberry jam. With air, the addition of white florals and a wonderful red fruit and loam character take the complexity next level. Ripe and chewy on the palate with robust yet soft tannins that integrate nicely with a black fruit and dark chocolate oak finish.

Check-in tasting 6.23.21 -The aromatics are fairly robust but the palate is beautifully resolved and seamless. Still, this wine has gobs of structure and fairly tightly wound. Decant for a couple hours and, like N.31, enjoy with rich foods.
