Product Description
94 points Vinous
"The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is fabulous. A rush of floral and spice notes leads into a core of racy purplish fruit. Lavender, sage, mint and a whole range of savory Cabernet aromatics play off the natural richness of the year so well. The 2017 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon from Domaine Eden plus non-estate vineyards in Los Gatos and Saratoga, along with Merlot and Cabernet Franc from Mount Eden. That blend works so well. I loved it for its power and density. More importantly, the 2017 is a huge overachiever and a screaming value."

"Contains 11% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petite Verdot and 1% Malbec. Ages for two years in a combination of French and American oak.
Very dark garnet. Smells of rich black-cherry and tobacco-leaf notes. Juicy graphite, black-cherry and cedar notes are wrapped in a muscular fist of tannins. Excellent acidity and lovely balance with cigar-box finish. Excellent. 17.5/20 points. (AY)"
