Layers of opulent aromatics lift from the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Slope with fresh leather, boysenberry liqueur, violets, and fresh tobacco leaf. Full-bodied, with fully ripe tannins, a velvety texture, and a long finish, this is a bold expression with a luxurious polished feel. It has quite a bit of immediate appeal but has the structure to improve and develop over the next 15-20 years. Drink 2024-2044.
What We Thought: They may have changed the name, but it's still Hidden Ridge, with a dramatic nose of cedar and cassis with an elegantly smooth, full-bodied palate. Complex, with plenty of ripe blackberry and black raspberry fruit, along with notes of coffee, vanilla, and dark chocolate. It's supported by supple but serious tannins that promise a long life in the cellar, although it is drinking so well that it makes me wonder, "Why Wait!"
