Irresistible ripened plums and opulent dusty blackberries lift the senses, alluring the nose to tertiary notes of delicate florals and intriguing mineral edges. Balance is the defining quality of this wine even in its youth, 2021 Black Label is resolutely complete from beginning to end. Every element is in place, as dimpled yet silky tannins unfold with grace and finesse, revealing a core of power and depth. Broad strokes of black mulberries, crme de cassis, and juniper accelerate through the mid-palate with captivating width and focus. This thrilling dance culminates in a stunning finish of opulent and elegant dark fruits that persist with each sip, leaving an indelible impression of the near-perfect growing season that shaped the Fortuna Vineyardfull of power and sinueand Leopoldina Vineyardfull of poise and intentionin the 2021 vintage. emStunning stuff,em the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Black Label offers a full-bodied, deep, majestic as well as beautiful aromatics of cr me de cassis, violets, flowers, and nicely integrated oak. It has ultra-fine tannins, flawless balance, and a regal, age-worthy that has so much to love. It, however, is not going to be for the instant gratification crowd and this actually shut down pretty quickly with air. I would hide bottle for 4-6 years and it s going to cruise over the following two decades in cold cellars.- b97 Points Jeb Dunnuck
