Mayacamas Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is a heady, powerful wine that showcases Mount Veeder's intensity. Dark plum, mocha, licorice and gravel notes are amplified on the palate with remarkable concentration. At thirteen years, this retains serious baby fat and structure that demands patience. The unctuous, flamboyant style is almost shocking in its richness, yet it works brilliantly. Consider cellaring for several more years.
