2018 Turnbull Wine Cellars Leopoldina Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Napa

(95 Points)  --  (Wine Advocate)

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Leopoldina Vineyard displays a deep garnet-purple color, leaping form the glass with bright, energetic scents of blackcurrant pastilles, redcurrant jelly, black cherry compote and candied violets plus nuances of unsmoked cigars, fragrant earth, pencil shavings and iron ore. Full-bodied, rich and decadent in the mouth, the gorgeous, densely packed black fruit is beautifully contrasted by alluring tension and a wonderfully plush texture, finishing long with lots of floral and mineral fireworks.
