"Boasting a saturated purple hue, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard reveals notes of blackcurrants, spicy oak, chocolate, and violet nuances, with some Pauillac-like lead pencil and minerality. Aged 22 months in 60% new French oak, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is full-bodied and incredibly concentrated, has ripe, polished tannins, and a blockbuster of a finish. I love it today, but it deserves 4-6 years of bottle age and will cruise in cold cellars over the following 25 years. Drink 2029-2054."
