Lot 375
2018 Venezia Giulia Cabernet Sauvignon (92-Points)

Dark ruby on the pour with a garnet-kissed rim, savory black cherries and blackcurrant are delineating from rustic leather, cedar, blackberry, and fresh-turned black soil - gobs of character here as this wine comes into its own. The profile carries through to the palate where the ripe, succulent entry stretches out black fruit over layers of leather- and mineral-laced tannins in a long finish that's just beginning to flesh out. Distinctive and classic with an undeniable modern-meets-old-school mentality, this wine is really beginning to shine. Drink now with a good decant, or cellar for the next 10-15 years.
