The 2021 Turnbull Oakville Reserve is composed of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon along with a dash of Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot which was sourced from Leopoldina (61%) and Fortuna (39%). It instantly begins to impress as it opens to alluring aromatics of ripe black currants, cassis and blueberries which come together with spices, graphite, dried herbs and spring florals that all develop beautifully in the glass. On the palate this possesses a full body, with a gorgeous voluptuous texture, supported by nicely integrated, well-polished tannins. It shows wonderful overall balance, structure and concentration through the long supple finish. While this is showing marvelous now, it should continue to offer drinking pleasure for years to come.
