Tasting notes
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Platinum is another quality wine. Currants, tobacco leaf, earth and assorted herbal notes all flow to a rich, nicely concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon that has medium to full-bodied richness, plenty of oak, good mid-palate density, and a great finish. Give it a year or three to integrate its oak and drink bottles over the following decade.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Platinum offers up pronounced cassis, black cherry and blueberry notes with touches of menthol, chocolate box, cedar and violets. Full-bodied and full-on hedonistic, it ticks all the big, rich, seductive Napa Cab boxes and doesn’t disappoint on the long, fruit-packed finish.
Plenty of blackcurrants and stones with hints of pine on then nose. Medium to full body, ultra-fine tannins and a fine finish. Lovely balance and refinement to this. Better in 2020 but already beautiful. Excellent example of a balanced Napa cab.
