Score 97/100 · James Suckling, Feb 2019
I love the ink-like nose of iodine, crushed stones, blackcurrants, licorice and forest floor. Full body, ripe and chewy tannins, so much layered fruit and a long finish. Muscular and concentrated, but fine-grained and lithe at the same time. Drink in 2024.

Made of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 19 months in 66% new French oak, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain is deep garnet-purple colored and sings of crushed blackcurrants and blueberries with hints of sautéed herbs, beef dripping, black olives and tilled soil. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and chewy with loads of dark fruits and earthy layers and an herbal lift to the finish. 300 cases produced.
