This distinctively fresh wine emits a creamy flow of spiced pomegranate, red tea, and vanilla-coated cherry. Melding with white pepper and hyacinth, focused acidity carries the palate to a high-energy finish.

Luscious red currants, potpourri, mulberries, blackberries and spices. The palate is juicy and refined, with a textured mouthfeel and firm tannins leading to a mouthwatering, polished finish. An approachable, floral cabernet.
JD Jeb Dunnuck: 93 Points
The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon C.C. Ranch offers plums, chocolaty herbs, graphite, and loamy earth on the nose. This carries to a medium to full-bodied and concentrated 2023 that has firmer tannins, good balance, and beautiful length. It needs 2-4 years of bottle age but should see its 20th birthday in fine form. It doesn't have the tannin quality of the top releases here, but it's still a beautiful wine. Drink 2027-2045.
