Tasting notes
Another single-vineyard Turnbull utilizes is the Fortuna Vineyard. The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Fortuna Vineyard is a larger cuvée of just over 700 cases of dense, purple-colored Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a nose of glorious blueberry and blackberry fruit with licorice, incense and floral background notes, with a full-bodied superb richness and a long, layered mouthfeel. This is elegant and at the same time seriously endowed and capable of drinking well and evolving for 20-25 years.

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Fortuna is a bit darker and fleshier than the 2013 tasted alongside it. Dark cherry, plum, menthol, licorice, spice and violet all meld together in an effortless, silky Cabernet Sauvignon endowed with real depth. This is a very strong showing. Best of all, the 2014 should drink well with minimal cellaring. (AG)
