Tasting notes
There are 350 cases of the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Armaan, which is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Tench Vineyard in Oakville. Scents of cassis, blueberry, sage, bay leaf and baking spices mark the nose, alongside hints of dark chocolate, savory notions of black olive and rich loamy earth. It's full-bodied, plush and dense without seeming heavy or overdone, with a long, velvety-textured finish.

Lots of blue fruits, violets, orange blossom, and more exotic, lifted notes emerge from the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Armaan Tench Vineyard, a pure, full-bodied, seamless Cabernet that comes from a great vineyard in Oakville, just across from Screaming Eagle. I love its purity of fruit, it’s incredibly complex, with sweet tannins and a great finish.
The 2019 Armaan is silky, textured and opulent. Chocolate, espresso, licorice and sweet spice build as this unctuous Cabernet Sauvignon shows off its allure. Readers should expect a flamboyant, dialed up style. There is not a lot of subtlety here, but the Armaan will undoubtedly appeal to fans of the style.
