Tasting notes
Forman's 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is fabulous. Rich and beautifully layered in the glass, the 2017 has gorgeous depth and a touch of exoticism that is so appealing. Ripe red berry fruit, floral overtones and a touch of spice are all laced together. Just bottled, the 2017 is super impressive, even in the early going. This is an especially racy style for Ric Forman, and yet he clearly got every ounce of potential out of the year. (AG) 95+

The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is an attractive wine, but it also comes across as a bit reticent today. Time in the decanter allows the fruit to emerge, but my impression is that the 2017 is going through a somewhat awkward stage today. Time will ultimately tell.
