2018 Dollarhide Cabernet Sauvignon 3.0L – Etched Label

96 Points, The Tasting Panel

“From its opaque presence to opulent aromas of vanilla bean, plum, and roasted coffee, this red goes deep beneath the surface. Slate-lathered, dusty terroir displays its bold, adventurous side. Blackberry density plays alongside chewy, fleshy tannins. Its stately profile leaves room to age with grace”

94 Points, Decanter

“A selection of older estate vines at Dollarhide Ranch, currently over 30-years-old. Exotic, spice-driven aromas of paprika, clove and cinnamon tied together by dehydrated blueberries. A clear step up in pedigree from the the Elevation bottling, showing a delicious, forward richness harnessed by a firm but accessible structure. Drinking Window 2024 – 2035”

94 Points, James Suckling

“Blackberry, blueberry, black-olive and mint aromas follow through to a full body with layers of ripe-berry and currant flavors with milk chocolate and plum. Lovely, flavorful finish. Drink or hold”

92 Points, Jeb Dunnuck

“Lots of chocolatey dark fruits, tobacco, graphite, scorched earth, and espresso notes emerge from the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Dollarhide Estate Vineyard, which is medium to full-bodied and has a dense, concentrated, foursquare texture, building tannins, and outstanding length. It shows more and more elegance with time in the glass and is going to evolve for 10-15 years”

91 Points, Wine Spectator

“Direct, with singed vanilla, cassis and plum notes layered together. Stay focused, with a light tobacco note adding range on the finish, while the cassis note takes an encore”
