| FREAKSHOW CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2014 Lodi |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
MICHAEL DAVID |
| Extremely deep intense purple colour. Somewhat sweetish, very spicy, stewed black cherry nose with some cedary mocha-chocolate notes. Fairly dry, medium-full bodied, mature, fairly intense, baked plum-cherry flavours with a cedary, mocha-chocolate-tinged finish. This sweetish, oaky, juicy, 797-case REPEAT has 14.5% alcohol and now 6 g/L residual sugar. It is simply not my style of Cabernet Sauvignon and, despite its popularity, I am sticking with my 85-point score from when this REPEAT was last released on April 1, 2017 at $29.95. TONY ASPLER / 87.5-points - Cedary, vanilla oak and cherry nose with a light floral grape note; full-bodied, sweet jammy fruit with a smoky note and a firm tannic finish. It appears on the agent-paid-for advertising spot on the back cover of the Vintages Catalogue. In the US it is readily available for under $16. |

| TASTING NOTE: Rich, ripe and oaky, this full-bodied wine has loads of sweet blackberry and black cherry flavors, with generous doses of oak spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, wood smoke and dark chocolate. It's bold but complex and will be a lot of fun to drink with red meat. Editors' Choice. Score - 91 (Jim Gordon, Wine Enthusiast, April 1, 2017) |
