The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is another excellent release in this vintage from Hertelendy. The aromas are compelling as it is constantly evolving in the glass. Nuances of ripe dark cherries, cassis and boysenberries that come together with exotic spices, dusty rocks, hints of dark chocolate and forest herbs. On the palate this full-bodied Cabernet possesses wonderful concentration, which is supported by polished, yet firm tannins and notable underlying acidity that lifts the long finish. This is a beautifully made wine that is excellent now, but it also has all the characteristics to indicate a long evolution ahead.
