By separately aging and then blending four clones of Cabernet Sauvignon into one big, bold wine we can allow each clone to bring its own personality to the party. Enjoy aromas of juicy red plum and black raspberry with medium to full-bodied flavors of cinnamon-sprinkled black cherries.
Rating:90
Beginning with a high-toned, red-fruited nose, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Rattlesnake Hills offers aromas of juicy red plum and black raspberry with subtle notions of lavender and violet. Medium to full-bodied, the palate offers flavors of cinnamon-sprinkled black cherries with an element of vanilla and mocha before ending with a delightfully lingering finish. It should drink well for the next 5-6 years.

Editor’s Choice – Outstanding, 91 pts.
Plush and brooding, offering solid structure and rich, distinctive flavors of plump blackberry and spiced red cherry with generous portions of mocha, anise, graphite and loamy earth notes. Well-defined tannins frame the elegant and expressive finish.
