Last night I opened the 2018 Lewelling Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from St. Helena Napa Valley California. On the nose is black cherry, plum, blackberry, black and red currant, bell pepper, mint and pencil lead. On the palate there is sweet black cherry, bkackberry, black plum, black currant, vanilla, chocolate, spice, cedar, pencil shavings and wet gravel. This is a gorgeous full bodied wine witha smooth sumptuous mouthfeel medium + acidity and medium + sandy tannins that leads into a long dark fruit wet gravel finish. What a wonderful weekend. I hope everyone is having the same. Please stay safe and healthy and a continued wonderful weekend. Nostrovia!

Very impressive, and because of the quality of the vintage, I guessed correctly this time. The quality is synonymous with the Wight Vineyard cab. Bold, sweet and textured. Syrup de cassis plays off sandalwood and bright acidity. This deserves cellaring, as it’s going to further improve.
