Saturday, September 29, 2018 - Riverain (Oakville): A generous tasting lineup of the 2013, 2014, 2015, and a new 2016 BBS Tench Cabernets.
Quite the contrast to the 2013, this 2014 version was all about accessible red berry fruit. No hard edges and an inviting medium-bodied attitude that welcomed near-term consumption. Red and black cherry and some black raspberry fruits dominate, with some cedar notes to round it all out. A fairly plush and fruity wine, but with enough frame to maintain focus.
Drink now and over the next 3-5 years.
