Hundred Acre, Wraith Vintage:2014 A touch of unabsorbed SO2

A touch of unabsorbed SO2 doesn’t seriously detract from the pretty

Note that this is evolving glacially and I have extended my suggested drinking window by several years

Voluptuous textures

I would have given this wine a slightly higher rating but the new oak has been pushed to the limit

intense and lightly mineral-driven flavors that possess better depth if less mid-palate concentration than would be necessary to propel this to the next level

Hundred Acre, Wraith Vintage:2014 A touch of unabsorbed SO2Medium to deep garnet purple colored, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Wraith leaps from the glass with gregarious black and red cherries, mulberries, black currant cordial, red roses and lavender scents with layers of crushed rocks and earthy sparks. Faint earth and exotic spice nuances unfurl slowly, growing in intensity and depth. The palate is full bodied and solidly structured with firm, very finely grained, super ripe tannins and bold freshness.
