TASTING NOTE: Antica's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is dark, bold and intense, with plenty of black cherry, plum, mocha and new oak nuances woven throughout. Deceptively medium in body, the 2014 packs serious punch, especially within the context of the vintage. All the 2014 needs is a bit more time to fully absorb the oak. Even so, it is quite tasty today. Score - 89-91 (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, Dec. 2016) Price $ 69.95
