The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville comes from Vine Hill Ranch and is a big, spicy, cedary, Pauillac-like wine with notes of baking spices, blackcurrants, licorice, forest floor, coffee and a touch of new oak in the background. This big, tannic wine needs to be forgotten for 4-5 years and drunk over the following 25 or more.

Dripping with dark cassis, plum and blackberry fruit flavors infused with subtle sweet tobacco, loam and menthol notes. Delivers cedar and baker's chocolate accents that fill in the background, while the polished structure allows everything to glide through with poise. A textbook expression of Oakville, with ample life ahead too. Blind 2013 California Cabernet retrospective (February 2023).
