  It took till about hour 4 to really blossom. Full-bodied bold fruits. This will will last a long time.

  The 2018 Heart of the hill Cabernet Sauvignon from Betz continues its outstanding legacy. The 2018 does need some decanter time but it is quite enjoyable now. Aromas of red & black fruits, mocha, and cigar box. On the palate its very balanced even with substantial tannins and gives a lush mouthfeel. Black fruits, leather, and that Red Mountain swagger.
  
  Paired well reverse seared beef and baby red potatoes. This Cabernet is comparable with many high-end wines and keeps its place in my cellar.

  Beautiful Red Mountain wine. Lucious dark red fruit, grippy tannins and subtle floral and game notes. This is a superior wine.

  Beautiful WA cab. Plenty of deep red fruit, a touch of mocha and a trifle of truffle. Plenty of length.

  Drank alongside a Quilceda Creek cab and compared very favorably. Opened and poured w/o decanting. Healthy dark purple color. Nicely balanced with smooth tannins and a long finish. Drinks well now, may improve for a few more years.
