Score 94/100 · Drink 2020-2036, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Apr 2020

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Smothers-Remick Ridge is such a classy, polished wine. Silky, exquisitely perfumed and just striking in its balance, the 2016 is a remarkably elegant wine. Succulent dark cherry, menthol, licorice, spice, tobacco and black olive all add energy and character.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Smothers-Remick Ridge Vineyard aged 32 months in 45% new oak and was bottled unfined and unfiltered. It has a deep ruby color and takes its time opening up to scents of warm chocolate, cassis, hoisin and Indian spices with layers of lilac, bacon fat, pencil shavings, cedar, Morello cherries and a eucalyptus hint. Medium to full-bodied and silky, it offers intense and ripe fruits, still with a youthful robe of new oak. It has a juicy, plush frame with grainy-textured tannins and a long finish. This merits at least another couple of years in bottle. 322 cases produced.
