[SOLD-OUT] Mt. Brave Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

 

"The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon from Mt. Brave is fabulous. Inky, rich and explosive, the 2018 possesses tremendous depth and tons of personality. Graphite, blue/purplish fruit, blackberry jam, bittersweet chocolate, sage, lavender, menthol give the 2018 tons of character to match its explosive feel. The brooding, backward wine is going to need quite a bit of time to unwind, but boy is it gorgeous." - Vinous

 

"Blueberry smoothie, perfumed, slight black pepper and exotic spices, violet perfume, dried herbs, and mocha oak. Medium to full-bodied, powerful, blackcurrant, some red fruits, ferrous tannin and plenty of them, firm ‘mineral’ acidity keeps it fresh and it’s very long and powerful. Needs a fair amount of time, but a what a great Cabernet this is. So emphatic." - Wine Front

 

"A blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot, 1.5% Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder was aged for 22 months in oak barrels, 82% new. Deep garnet-purple colored, it springs from the glass with vibrant crème de cassis, baked plums and Morello cherries scents, followed by nuances of sautéed herbs, clove oil, mocha and scorched earth. The full-bodied palate is densely laden with layers of black and blue fruits, sporting a rock-solid backbone of grainy tannins and great tension, finishing long and minerally." - Wine Advocate
