"A rounded, resolved character helps this full-bodied but well-polished wine be drinkable now. It goes deep in black cherries, blueberries and savory hints of bay leaves and black olives, with smooth, moderate tannins. Drink now or hold."

"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum is a youthful red color and takes things to the next level, with well-layered notes of pencil shavings, cassis, lavender, and sweet tobacco. This one is all about the aromatics, but it's full-bodied, plush, and weightless, floating on the palate with a completely approachable feel that's hard to resist now. Drink 2025-2045."

"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum is bright and nicely focused. Red cherry/plum fruit, spice, mocha, cedar and new leather lend notable vibrancy to this mid-weight Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2019 is a blend of fruit from Oakville and Oak Knoll, with the vibrancy of Oak Knoll lending freshness and verve, but also closing the wine down for the time being."

"Blended with 12% Petit Verdot, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum has pure, detailed aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, mint chocolate and pencil shavings. The full-bodied palate pairs transparent, understated flavors with polished tannins and bright acidity, and it has a long, perfumed finish. It will benefit from several years in the cellar. 588 cases were made."
