The 2016 Solari is utterly brilliant, and harnesses all the wonderful elements of this fantastic vintage. Composed of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, this stunning wine opens to an expressive aromatic profile laced with fresh dark fruits, tobacco, roasted coffee, spring florals, loam and savory herb nuances that all come together and soar from the glass. The palate offers a gorgeous full body and is impeccably structured with beautifully polished tannins that frame the gorgeous layers of juicy dark fruits. This goes on to display outstanding balance and striking purity, as it remains fresh and inviting through the exceedingly long finish. While the Solari is nothing short of stunning now, it is ultimately and age-worthy wine that pushes the limit of perfection and will thrive over the next two or three decades.
