2020 Martin Ray Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville
$89.95
Complex and focused with satiny layers of marionberry, fresh macerated blackberries, surrounding a core of leather, tobacco leaf and clove. Fervent, with fine-grained tannins, and subtle notes of lemon thyme and caramel. Strikingly fresh throughout, with a long, rich finish.

Blueberries, hot stones, currants and sweet spices on the nose. Hazelnuts, too. Medium-bodied, polished and creamy with firm yet well-rounded tannins. Nice weight on the center-palate. Delicious already, but better after 2023.
