Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2018 Brandlin Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon pours a deep garnet color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with a classic mountain fruit profile: a mix of tart and ripe currants, blackberries, purple flowers, tobacco, inorganic earth and a mix of cool and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Well balanced and charming. Drink now through 2038.
