Dense and rich. Dark ripe fruit and a faint note of anise.

I love these new world wines with an old world soul. Togni, Ridge, Dunn and Dominus are my favorites in that particular California x Bordeaux league. Ric Forman’s wines are often unjustly overlooked; by myself, and many others. For these wines are singular, ageworthy, highborn and relatively affordable.
The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is quite smooth and approachable today, like great Napas present themselves most of the time. It contains masses of dark fruit, chalk, coffee, licorice and tobaccoleaf. Yet, underneath there’s a lot of great freshness, masculine structure and rusticity that could easily make me go Pauillac as well.
Really outstanding. Highly recommended.
