The 2016 Kronos Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is an absolutely magical release from Cathy Corison. This immediately begins to impress as it opens to incredibly perfumed aromatics of ripe dark currants and black cherries, which are woven together with fresh violets, graphite shavings, exotic spices, herbs and earthy minerals that all come together and burst from the glass. On the palate this is full-bodied and remarkably polished, with absolutely incredible overall balance and structure. This stunning Cabernet goes on to impress with its wonderful concentration, precision and beautifully pure ripe dark fruits that continue to captivate the senses as they build up to the gorgeous finish. Corison's wines are always masterful display of both power, elegance and sheer class, and there is certainly no exception with this brilliant wine. The 2016 Kronos is clearly one of the finest wines from the entire vintage and there is no doubt it should have an incredibly bright future ahead for many years to come.
