TOR Cabernet Sauvignon, Tierra Roja Vineyard 2014

Another outstanding showing in this vintage from Tor Kenward is the Tierra Roja Cabernet Sauvignon. Tierra Roja is a small 4-acre vineyard situated in Oakville and possesses characteristics of large rocks and red soils, hence its name. The 2014 is a absolutely majestic wine, which opens with gorgeous perfumed aromas of freshly crushed blackberries and dark currants, along with spring floral, graphite, sweet spices, mineral and underlying notes of dark chocolate and anise. This continues to impress on the palate with its full-bodied, opulent texture and wonderful overall balance and depth. It continues to demonstrate incredible freshness and purity as it delivers layers of deeply concentrated dark fruits, which work their way into the long, multidimensional finish. Although exceedingly delicious right now, this will be at its best with some additional bottle age, and will continue to evolve gracefully in the cellar for many years to come. (Best 2018-2036) - January, 2017 (JD)
