Tasting notes
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as relatively laid back for the vintage. There is good delineation to the dark red stone fruit, mint, lavender and spice nuances. Overall, though, this is a delicate, nuanced style in a year that generally produced big, tannic wines.

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is nearly equal in quality to the more expensive Reserve ORO. A spicy style of Cabernet with plenty of sweet tannin, blueberry and blackberry fruit, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon offers full body and outstanding ripeness as well as velvety, well-integrated tannins. Drink it over the next 15-20 years.
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is gorgeous. Graphite, smoke, mocha, plums, dark cherries, mint and licorice are some of the signatures. Drink this expressive, mid-weight Cabernet Sauvignon over the next handful of years. The 2013 finishes with a real savory edge.
Keever's 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon impresses for its vibrant, intensely perfumed personality. Blue and black stone fruits with exotic citrus and spice blossom through the mid-palate and finish in a wonderfully expressive Cabernet Sauvignon endowed with pure class. There is a lot to like here, in particular the way the wine achieves notable resonance with no excess heaviness.
