2018 Substance Cabernet Sauvignon
Community Tasting Note
codysak Does not like this wine:
87 Points
Thursday, February 4, 2021 - S: Deep Ruby; some may describe as Purple
N: Medium+ Intensity of Black Current, Black Cherry, Plums of cooked characteristics.
P: Dry, Med Acid, Medium+ Soft Tannins, High Alcohol, Med+ Body, Med+ Intensity of Primary cooked fruit with a Med + finish.
Technically, a good wine with primary cooked, jammy fruit. Although there is a good concentration of fruit, the wine lacks the complexity and freshness of better wines. It borders out of balance due to the overt jammy fruit and just med acid.
Stylistically folks that enjoy the riper, jammy fruit forward style will enjoy this wine as it's well made, but I would prefer lighter, fresher Cab Savs with improved layering of flavors
