Kamen Estate Wines Estate Grown Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
96 points Parker One of the top-rated Cabs of the 2013 vintage - limited. 96 Points Robert Parker: "Kamen’s 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is a spectacular Cabernet, dense purple with notes of lead pencil shavings, blackberry, pen ink and cassis followed by a full-bodied, opulent, voluptuously textured wine with sweet tannins, stunning delineation, precision (a characteristic of 2013) and great length and richness. This is a stunner – a fabulous wine and, at this price point, very attractive. It should drink well for 25-30 years. ...Robert Kamen continues to turn out spectacular wines from his vineyards on the Sonoma side of the Mayacamas Mountains, now entitled to a relatively recent AVA known as Moon Mountain. His winemaking guru/consultant is none other than Mark Herold."

I’ll tell ya what, if you ever get promoted and your sister gives birth in the same day this is the perfect special occasion wine to celebrate with. My mouth feels like my soul feels while FaceTiming with a newborn infant that shares 50% of the same DNA as me. The baby can only hope it ages as well as this world class wine I found in a tasting room a stone’s throw away from the Sonoma town square. Pairs well with a Cosmos marathon.

A BABY! Yet, somehow I only have 2 of these left.....well......now one. Dang it. Hedonistic, dark mountain fruit. Nose of toasted black fruit, dark spice, graphite. Entry is dark black fruit, powerful, full throttle. The structure of this wine is IMMENSE in its youth. Tannic grip starts from the front but the fruit just busts on through. Yet, you get the impression that this wine probably needed to sit in the cellar at Kamen for another 2 years before being released. I'm always quite impressed with Kamen wines for being so approachable so early, yet also knowing that this one will still DEFINITELY be around in 10 or 15 years. Drink from now to 2035!

Blood red, full dark berries and other dark fruits. Concentrated but no hard edged tannins. Very concentrated but didn't overpower the palate. If you are looking for an opulent fruit driven cab this is it.

Kamen Cabernet Sauvignon deserves a rating of 10....when enjoyed on open sunny Virginia fresh waters. Over flowing with flavors of chocolate and black cherry...with delicate tannins and amazing full texture mouth feel. Have enjoyed some amazing wines...but this one in this environment...at this moment...is the Best of the Best!
