A fantastic Cabernet Sauvigon from a new boutique producer. The new John Anthony Vineyards 2013 Cabernet, a brilliant successor to previous vintages, is on par with the best Napa Cabs but only a few hundred cases were made - try it before the ratings come out and its still available. 94 Points James Suckling: "Fascinating wine with a superb intensity of blackcurrant and blackberry character. Medium to full body, a dense center palate and fine and silky tannins. A beauty. Drink in 2018." 91 points Robert Parker: "The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is a nice wine, powerful and rich, showing loads of crème de cassis and hefty alcohol (15.2%), but that's well disguised behind a cascade of a delicious fruit. The wine shows virtually no oak, has beautiful balance, a medium to full body, nice purity and texture. This is a somewhat under-the-radar producer turning out fine, outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon, and in a vintage like 2013 has certainly hit pay dirt. Drink it over the next 10-15 years."

In a really great place after a quick decant. Scents of Black cherries, leather, dried herbs. Raspberries, cranberries, and a bit of cigar box. Still a bit hot, but tannins are starting to integrate. Nice long finish. Expectations were exceeded!

Almost too buttery but when you happen to be type 2 diabetic, buttery is good! Loved it and would definitely recommend ordering dessert before your third bottle. Man, life is good...

Fruit forward at the start. Very nice tannin at the end. Just a hint of oak, and I do mean a hint.
