100% Cabernet Sauvignon
 
95 Points Jeb Dunnuck-...the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon The Dreamer has a sensational perfume of crème de cassis, spring flowers, graphite, and sweet, loamy earth-like nuances.
 
THE DREAMER exudes a deep ruby-brick color to accompany alluring aromas of blueberries and blue figs, framed by subtle hints of warm vanilla. Medium-bodied palate showcases red currant and Rainier cherry with silky, elegant tannins that lead to a long finish that evokes a poem you wish you had written.
 
WINEMAKER NOTES
This wine is dark and brooding, a wine of elegance, fine and structured tannins, and basically the wine-equivalent of a Wagner piece on a stormy night after unexpectedly making an enormous sum of money. In other words, it is fucking pure magic with rock bloody solid complexity on a very high level.
VINTAGE NOTES
There was no 2020 vintage due to the apocalyptic fires and so the 2021 has been a long time coming. An extremely small crop, dryness and zero heat spikes combined with super small, concentrated berries and a super long ripening season resulted in the vintage being hailed as one of the TRULY great ones.
VINEYARD NOTES
Sourced from small, family vineyards, (in some cases for 3-4 generations) that are farmed with great care and attention. These vineyards (some are 80+ years old) have been brought together, actually woven together, so the magical fruit could at last become Fortunate Son.
