Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard was aged for 22 months in French oak, 100% new. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bounds out of the glass with bold notions of black cherries, black raspberries and boysenberries giving way to a cassis and Indian-spice core plus wafts of crushed rocks and cast iron pan. Full-bodied, the palate has a drop-dead gorgeous frame of fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness supporting the many layers of red and black fruits, finishing long and earthy. (LPB)
