Lewis Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Hillstone 2016
This rare new Cabernet is both decadent in silky smooth richness and distinguished with an abundance of opulent dark fruit flavors! A monumental core of dark cherry and cassis on the front palate introduce hints of warm fudge brownies made from Valrhona chocolate. We savored the lavish amounts of kirsch, mocha and blackberry flavors supported by supple, ultra fine-grained tannins. The statuesque finish includes notes of exuberant toasted oak and vanilla. A HUGE crowd pleaser ready to deliver. Collectors may enjoy this thoroughbred now (after decanting) for a 97 point experience, evolving into 98 points and beyond through 2029.
