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.

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.

(93+ points) 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.- EB

(92+ points) 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. - By Antonio Galloni on January 2024

A focused version, offering a mix of gently mulled loganberry, blackberry and black cherry fruit scored with worn cedar and sweet tobacco, plus a hint of loam. Shows a slightly taut feel through the finish, giving this an echo of old school. Best from 2025 through 2037. 588 cases made.
