Beautiful cab from Stonestreet, dark and deep garnet colors with wafting aromatics of cassis, leather, dark chocolate, coffee, and jam. High in tannins and medium high acidity. Beautiful and complex flavors. Vanilla and blackberry, cocoa powder, graphite, and dark cherries. There is some spice too, like cloves and pepper. Great long finish. Holds up nicely next to the Christopher’s vineyard. — 8 months ago

Smoother than the 2016, this Stonestreet Cabernet is excellent and ready to drink. Good cherry fruit to start, very smooth tannins in the finish. Lovely. This Cabernet Sauvignon is well-balanced and can be consumed alone, with cheese, or with many other dishes and is not an overpowering bomb that would be suitable only with steak. — a year ago
Pretty nice balance and easy finish; maybe a little heavy on the acid side of things; not as full/rounded as the 2017 Stonestreet Estate Vineyard Cab we had the other night. — 2 years ago

Sipping Fine Wine
Pale lemon color with aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, cinnamon and flinty scents, aged for 10 months in 30% new French oak. On the palate flavors of apple, melon and lemon citrus, well balanced with acidity. Medium+ finish ending with mineral, fruit, floral and citrus notes. Good now! — 18 days ago
