This was really quite good. Strong tannins at this point, but not out of balance with the fruit and acidity. Extremely long finish. This has many years of life ahead of it, no rush to open.

Tried the 2018. Still very young and really needs some bottle aging. Nice fruit notes but flavors are still forming and the mouth feel is light to my tastes. It will age well, but I feel will not obtain some of the depth seen in other competitive Cabs. Personally, I think the Ciel du Cheval will prove the better wine from Seven Hills for 2018.

At tasting room. This is a baby but still a beast dressed in a crushed velvet suit. Going to be epic in a few years.
