2020 Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Our 2020 Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerhouse example of our flagship wine, with an intense and fragrant bouquet of ripe, dark berries, grape compote, black cherry, orange peel and black plum, alongside savory perfumed notes of wild violet, rose petal, fresh spearmint, Bay Laurel and earth. Warm baking spice notes from the French oak barrel influence adds vanilla, caramel, and allspice. Saturated dark fruit is present and voluminous throughout the palate, exhibiting mouthcoating structure, with density and enveloping richness. Full-bodied and multilayered, secondary notes of bittersweet dark chocolate, savory umami, leather, tobacco leaf, and graphite add additional nuance and complexity. The signature “Rutherford Dust” tannins are pronounced, framing the wine, and present a firm grip, with chewy, cocoa-powder-like texture. The mouthwatering palate is lively and fresh with balanced acidity, demonstrating length and a lovely generosity. Certain to age for many years to come and incredibly pleasing and enjoyable upon release.
