Medium garnet-purple in color, the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon needs a little coaxing to bring out pretty notes of kirsch, redcurrant jelly, and juicy blackberries plus hints of rose oil, cinnamon stick, and underbrush. The medium to full-bodied palate is bright and cheery, with red and black berry layers framed by a chewy texture and refreshing line, finishing long and earthy. Nice!

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon erupts from the glass with a gorgeous perfume of blueberry compote, boysenberry preserves, and warm cassis leading to nuances of lavender, tar, tapenade, and fragrant soil. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly wound with vibrant black fruit and savory nuances framed by very firm grainy tannins, finishing long with a minerally lift.

Middels rød farge. Intens solbær, urter og sval mineralitet på duft og smak. Flott konsentrasjon med velbalansert ettersmak med unge markerte tanniner og flott syrlighet. Server i store glass

Sommelier

Mørk frukt duft dominert av plommer, grønn paprika, ville urter og våt leire. Mulig det grønne preget i vinen kan forklares grunnet årgangen; En våt innhøstning og varierende modningsgrad på druene i området. Likevel en vin med flott tekstur og nerve som gir vinen en sjarmerende identitet

Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon waltzes out with ready-to-go, mature notes of unsmoked cigars, blackcurrant jelly, and dusty soil with hints of sauteed herbs, underbrush, and black truffle. The medium-bodied palate delivers a chewy texture and plenty of freshness to support the savory black fruit layers, finishing long and minerally.

Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon gives up mature scents of cigar box, fallen leaves, and crushed rocks giving way to a core of prunes and fruitcake followed by a waft of new leather. The light to medium-bodied palate has soft silt-like tannins and a lively line defining the dried berries and earth flavors, finishing on a ferrous note.

Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with slowly evolving notes of tobacco leaf, spice box, and dried cherries leading to a core of warm cassis, pencil lead, and new leather with a waft of iron ore. The light to medium-bodied palate is light on its feet and refreshing, with slightly chewy tannins and loads of savory nuances to the red berry flavors, finishing with a dried herbs lift.
