Lancaster Estate Cuvee 2019

Winery notes:

The 2019 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon captures the pure expression of our unique terroir at Lancaster Estate. It is a blend of four of the five of the red Bordeaux varietals we have planted on our volcanic hillside vineyards. The nose is rich with aromas of dark plum, tobacco and black pepper. The palate is deep and concentrated with flavors of black cherry, dark stone fruit, dried sage and a subtle earthiness. This wine should be decanted when young, and will only gain in complexity for the next 15-20 years.

Critical acclaim:

"94 points. Ripe and layered, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is packed with notes of redcurrant, leather, cedar, and forest floor. Full-bodied, with more purity on the palate, it offers notes of ripe kirsch, blackberry, pressed violets, and turned soil, and while the tannins are more rounded, the fruit catches up. Drink 2025-2034." - Jeb Dunnuck
