Another wine that’s possibly the best vintage to date, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Ciel du Cheval Vineyard, which incorporates 20% Merlot, offers the telltale graphite, dried earth and crushed rock qualities of Red Mountain to go with a core of kirsch, blackberry and floral aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied, elegant, and balanced, give it 2-3 years and enjoy bottle through 2027.
