Tasting Notes
Vinous 94
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Tychson Hill Vineyard has arrived at its first plateau of maturity. Red cherry, mocha, espresso and dried herbs all show the gentle patina of age. The 2014 should drink well for another decade or so. I wouldn't push my luck beyond that. The Tychson opens beautifully with time in the glass, but I don't see it improving from here.
Anticipated maturity: 2024-2031
Robert Parker 98
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Tychson Hill is an extraordinary wine with an inky bluish purple color and classic aromatics of creme de cassis, white flowers, lead pencil shavings, pen ink, incense and camphor. It hits the palate with full-bodied richness but not a bit of heaviness. Great precision, vibrant underlying acidity, and sweet, long tannins make this a sumptuous mouthful of wine with a finish of close to 45+ seconds. This fabulous effort can be drunk now or cellared for 25-30 years.
Anticipated maturity: 2016-2046
