The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 22 months in 70% new French oak, is a relatively limited cuvée of 300 cases. It is a stunner, with an opaque purple color, a big sweet kiss of blackberry and crème de cassis, a touch of camphor and incense followed by a lush, full-bodied wine with layers of fruit and glycerin. The wine is dense, impressive and both hedonistic and intellectually satisfying. It should drink well for at least 15-20+ years.

Black cherry, mocha, chocolate, cloves and French oak give the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon its rich, sumptuous personality. Powerful, super-concentrated and decadent in its richness the 2014 is a juicy, full-throttle wine from Pritchard Hill. The 2014 is not as showy as it was from barrel, but is quite impressive just the same.
