Fleshy, savory, and juicy, with a pronounced mineral and earthy character. Dirt, blood cassis, blackberry, and leather create an intensely flavorful profile. Thyme and savory notes add depth, making this pretty big and bold. The tannins are grippy, with red and blue fruit, dark soil, coffee grounds, and leather rounding out the complex finish.

Silky, rich, and absolutely delicious. Bursting with red and blue fruit, wrapped in smooth layers of dark chocolate, espresso, and vanilla. Fun caramel oak adds charm, while herbal undertones, bay leaf, and cigar box notes bring complexity. Extremely smooth and full-bodied. Stunning value and quite possibly the best ever

Hints of savory popcorn and vanilla bring a...

The 2021 Highest Beauty is the best vintage yet of this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from this special site. Dense, chewy and magnificently-layered, it features dark berry flavors and captivating mineral and tobacco notes. At first, I found it very intellectual and serious, but as it opened up it became more playful and downright exuberant with...
