Wine Report

“This is a simply stunning Cabernet Sauvignon that is absolutely intoxicating in its youth but has a long way to go. You are instantly enticed by the complex aromatics that slowly release blueberry pie with black tea, Asian spices, mocha and tar that all collide in the glass. The wine shows off silky tannins and a voluptuous mouthfeel that dances through the mid-palate. There is a marvelous, seamless character to the wine that really rings true as this glides across the mid-palate. Intense and layered, the palate shows off rich mocha, creme de cassis, anise and Turkish coffee flavors that are woven together with minerals and fine grained tannins. A delight to savor in its youth this stunning new release will cellar well for decades.”

“Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon The Bishop sings
of crushed black cherries, warm black berries and fresh blackcurrants with touches of chocolate box, dried Provence herbs, lavender and tapenade. The big, beautiful, generous palate is jam-packed with black and blue fruits, framed by
rock-solid, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing with an array of herbs and floral sparks.”
