The 2016 Doubleback Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, with small portions Petit Verdot, Malbec and Merlot. They have utilized the McQueen, Lefore, Figgins, Bob Healy and Pepper Bridge Vineyards for this excellent release. The aromatics are upfront and profounds, offering beautiful profile right out of the gate. Nuances of red bell pepper, anise, espresso bean and dark currant aromas all build in the glass. The palate shows wonderful balance and poise, yielding a fantastic combination of dark and red fruit flavors that are laced with herbal undertones. Energetic and showing notable poise, this young wine should continue to evolve and drink well over the next fifteen plus years.
