Hamel Nuns Canyon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 750 ML

A pure ruby robe in color, notes of fresh blackberry and cassis overlay savory tones of lavender, sage, graphite, tea leaf, soy and crushed rocks. A supple and silky attack on the palette is followed by dense, mouth-coating tannins that build a full, vertical and monolithic structure. This wine is persistent and powerful through its energy and sheer magnitude all the way to a chalky, mineral inflected finish. An impressive wine that will only benefit from time, be sure to watch this wine develop over the next twenty years and decant well in the near term.
