Archeus Magnetic Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
Bright blackberry and boysenberry supported by a nice balance of underlying acidity. Pleasant flavors of tobacco, coffee, vanilla, and earth complement the fruit. The components are well-integrated resulting in a persistent mouth-feel backed by dry tannin.
AWARDS:
Washington Tasting Room 91-94 pts
"Deep aromas of black fruit, pencil shavings and bits of tar lead to polished flavors of blackberry, black plum, tobacco, cedar and notes of vanilla. Well-poised acidity balances effortlessly with thick tannins that grip the finish"
Beverage Tasting Institute 91 pts
" Violet color. Aromas and flavors of chocolate mint cookie and frosted cherry tart with a vibrant, fruity medium-to-full body and an intriguing, medium-long finish with fine, chewy tannins and light oak flavor. An affable and juicy cabernet pleaser."
Wine Advocate: 92 pts
"Full and rich on the nose, the palate is bold and structured with ripe tannins, showing good focus, balance, weight and complexity across the mid-palate, with still-chewy tannins that linger on the long finish of this juicy cabernet"
