Tasting notes
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum is made up of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Cabernet Franc. It's deep ruby with a nose of graphite, dusty earth, bitter chocolate and cardamom with floral sparks, iron, crème de cassis, red and black cherries, loamy earth and star anise. Medium to full-bodied, it's lush and smooth in the mouth with loads of chocolaty fruits, very ripe, grainy tannins and great acidity, finishing very long. Lovely! 606 cases were made. (EB)

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum is rich, racy and seductive, and yet also maintains a very classic, mid-weight sense of structure. The flavors are bright and nicely focused in this nuanced, mid-weight wine. The 2014 is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Cabernet Franc, with the Franc adding quite a bit of brightness and aromatic nuance. This has terrific potential. (AG) 93+
Very ripe and plummy, verging on jammy. Full body, fruit-forward and spicy. Flavorful finish.
A rich and beautiful red with black currants and berries. Chocolate and spice too. Full body, round tannins and a long, long finish. A beauty.
