2012 Force Majeure Vineyards Collaboration Series V Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Red Mountain

(97 Points)  --  (Wine Advocate)

Made by Chris Gorman, the 2012 Collaboration Series V Cabernet Sauvignon Ciel du Cheval is a blockbuster. Big, bombastic, full-bodied and decadent, it still stays classy and elegant, with lively black raspberry, cassis, caramelized cherries, crushed flowers and high-class oak all emerging from the glass. Enjoy this pedal-to-the-metal Cabernet over the coming two decades. (JD)  Review Date: 06/2015
