Group have different opinion of 2019 Fortunate Son. Some like The Warrior, some like Diplomat. Personally I like The Dreamer the most.

• 2019 Fortunate Son Cabernet Sauvignon The Dreamer 97 Points

  100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
  Pronounced nose intensity with notes of black fruits, black cherry, cassis, chocolate, vanilla, spices. Despite youthfulness, it’s well balanced and the tannin is velvety and smooth.
