Gundlach Bundschu
Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Well the pros have it wrong on this one. This is 2014 Gundlach Bundschu cabernet sauvignon from Sonoma. I give it a perfect 9.8 after a 30 min decant! The blackberry and dark currant typical of a big cab is overwhelmingly good. The chocolate and spicy initial palate is to die for. Then the rush of American oak and cigar box lines the foundation of this amazing cab. The finish is dry with a subtle tart tingle on the sides of the tongue. Good grief, I need MORE!!!!!!!

Jul 28th, 2018Probabky should have let this lay down for a few years, but was clearly a little impatient. It's big, with heavy tannin on the back of the tongue. Glad I have a few more so I can come back another year from now and do a comparison.
