Full-bodied yet very framed and structured with dusty tannins that give a layered mouthfeel and a chewy finish. Solid core of fruit and structure.

The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes come from a 4.4ha site on a knoll of the valley floor in Oakville with iron-rich fractured volcanic soils: wonderfully fragrant blackberry, graphite, and capsicum intertwine with tobacco notes and violet pastille. The fruit spectrum is unequivocally dark and lifted by a spine of racy acidity. Chiseled tannins give this medium shape to a full-bodied red. After a few seconds bright blood orange notes emerge balanced by saline-rich earth and mineral, perhaps even a hint of charcuterie on the extended finish.

It is a little closed to begin, soon unfurling to reveal notes of dark chocolate, baked black plums, and crème de cassis, with underlying suggestions of charcoal and fertile loam. The full-bodied palate delivers layers of energetic black fruits with a firm, grainy texture and a long, fruity finish.

It's medium-bodied, layered, and elegant, with fine tannins and outstanding length. It s another outstanding 2020 from this team to enjoy over the coming decade or more.

Black fruit, gravel, incense, grilled herbs and strong savory inflections build in the glass. Time seems to have amplified the intense ripeness of the year. The 2020 is imposingly tannic at the outset, but settles down with a few hours of air.
