TOKO VINEYARD CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2018 Paraje Altamira, Valle de Uco, Mendoza |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
ZAHA |
This NEW in Vintages 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Mendoza’s Toko Vineyard is a real destination from those for ripe, rounded, well structured reds that are drinkable now. It has a very deep intense purple colour and a lovely, ripe, Damsom plum nose with some gently cedary, raspberry notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied and well balanced, the plummy-cassis-raspberry fruit are perfectly balanced by just a touch of oak and bright minerally notes. Ready-to-drink, it was microvinfied in small bins using only natural yeasts with 10-20% whole clusters and than aged for 14 months in used French oak. It has 13.5% alcohol, 2 g/L residual sugar and about 5.5 g/L total acidity with lot number 22096 on the back label. |

TASTING NOTE: This robust red is filled with concentrated dark plum and blackberry flavors that turn creamy and richtasting midpalate. Chocolate tart accents fill the lively finish, which is backed by firm acidity and tannins. Drink now through 2025. Number 73 in the 2021 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines. Score - 91 (Kim Marcus, winespectator.com, Nov. 15, 2021) |
