DIAMOND CREEK Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Rock Terrace 2012

The 2012 Red Rock Terrace is another extremely impressive showing from Diamond Creek in this vintage. As this begins to open it releases absolutely intoxicating aromas of gorgeous ripe blackberries and dark cherries layered with graphite, fresh violets, sweet spices and crushed earthy minerals making it impossible to resist. This spectacular Cabernet is remarkably polished and well structured, with tremendous overall concentration and depth. The full body is layered with dense fruit, yet beautifully balanced, offering a lovely sense of freshness as it expands on to the finish where it shows fantastic length. Even at this youthful stage this age worthy Cabernet is already extremely impressive, but this will only become even more compelling over time. (Best 2020-2036) - May, 2016 (JD)
