The 2018 Cimarossa Cabernet Sauvignon is an utterly fabulous release from Tor in this vintage. The Cabernet was sourced only from Block 10 and spent twenty months in 100% Darnajou French oak barrels. It begins with absolutely stunning aromas of blackberries, black cherries and black plums which come together with crème de cassis, forrest herbs, licorice and loamy notes that all burst from the glass. On the palate this is full-bodied, well-structured and concentrated, displaying plush layers of gorgeous ripe dark fruits that continue to resonate though the ultra-long finish. This is another stunning wine from Tor which is striking today, but also destined for a marvelous future.
