"Lovely aromas of plum and dark raspberry. In the mouth, the wine unfolds in layers of spice and anise. The finish is fresh and bright with a focused minerality and tannins that are firm, round and delicious." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Crisply focused in currant, dried herb and cedar, this is a classically structured red that is vibrantly approachable and ample to drink in its youth. With just 30% new French oak, it delivers forested earthiness and high-toned freshness that complement each other well for a very fair price." —Wine Enthusiast "Offers a tasty mix of gently mulled blackberry and red currant fruit flavors, laced with subtle herb and iron accents along the way. Judicious toast lets everything knit, keeping a fresh edge through the finish. Drink now through 2026. 1,550 cases made." —Wine Spectator "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Counterpoint is a classic, elegant, medium-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon with plenty of spicy red and black currant fruits, notes of tobacco, cedarwood, and earth, ripe, moderate tannins, and a fresh, elegant style that will evolve nicely for 10-15 years." —Jeb Dunnuck |
