PASSING TIME Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Mountain 2020

About ⅔ of the fruit on this gorgeous Red Mountain cabernet comes from the famed Klipsun Vineyard, with the rest from Red Mountain and Kiona Heart of the Hill. It’s aged in about 90% new French oak and has a nose that literally won’t stop - it’s focused, powerful in a restrained way, and absolutely scintillating. Lovely Red Mountain aromas and flavors of blackberry fruit leather, mountain huckleberry, dried wild sagebrush, dried purple flowers, baking chocolate, and cedar are wonderfully combined. A broad and expansive palate combines with perfect levels of acidity, rounded sweet tannin, and a lengthy mineral and peppery finish. Enjoy this for the next 15 years with proper cellaring. Highly recommended.
