Doubleback Cabernet 2018 Lost Coast

Doubleback Cabernet 2018 Lost CoastI cant say enough how much I love the 2018 vintage and this wine an absolutely stunning year and a vintage that shows a winemaker how great wines can really be. I tasted this new Doubleback Cabernet Sauvignon over a week and it kept getting better and changing in complexity. One true challenge is creating a wine that will age for decades but will also drink well on release. I think 2018 accomplished that to perfection. Crme de cassis, black currant,

Soto means 'OUTSIDE' in Japanese and the name is a celebration of the earth's purest elements - the finely polished rice and pristine mountain water

ultra-polished and beautiful tannins and hints of stones and cedar

orange zest

Dark cherry fruit

Intense and rich on both the palate and nose

this is very tight

but I do manage to also pull out ghee (clarified butter)

and received a Gold Medal at the 2015 Irish Whiskey Masters

aromatic profile that enhances cocktails and traditional recipes

Produced in Poland and distilled from potatoes

I think 2018 accomplished that to perfection
