Score 91/100 · Drink 2014-2024, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Sep 2014
Dark cherries, plums, earthiness, tobacco, menthol and crushed leaves are some of the notes that meld together in the 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon. Ample and broad on the palate, the 1992 delivers gorgeous texture, expressive inner perfume and tons of nuance. Hints of cedar, rosemary and sage wrap around the expressive finish. I don’t see the 1992 improving much from here, but it does have enough depth to stay at its current plateau of maturity for another decade or so.

The 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon shows good depth, but it is quite supple and also forward, especially in its aromas. In this context, the 1992 is a rare underachiever.
