Tasting notes
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Armaan is a blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon coming from Tench and Houyi vineyards and 20% Cabernet Franc coming from Sugarloaf Mountain vineyard. Deep garnet-purple colored, it rocks up with open-knit scents of baked black cherries, mulberries and crème de cassis plus hints of mocha, tobacco leaf and tilled soil. Full-bodied, the palate is chock-full of rich, black fruits and loads of baking spice accents in the mouth, framed by plush tannins and lively acid, finishing long and savory. 100 cases were made.

Reminding me of a great vintage of Château Pontet-Canet, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Armaan boasts a dense purple color as well as ample dark, black fruits, unsmoked tobacco, graphite, iron, and earth. Full-bodied, concentrated, and powerful on the palate, this beauty has a seamless texture, ripe yet building tannins, and one great finish. It’s a thrill a minute and will evolve for 20 years or more.
