WA 92 (12/2011): The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as very classic in its mid-weight body and flavor profile. Dark plums, herbs, cassis and tobacco are some of the aromas and flavors that emerge from this beautifully delineated, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon. This isn’t a blockbuster, but rather a wine that impresses for its understated finesse. The 2008 can be enjoyed today, but looks to have a wonderful evolution ahead of it as the tertiary aromas develop in bottle. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023.
VM 91+ (9/2012): Bright ruby-red. Highly nuanced nose combines cassis, plum, medicinal herbs, fruitcake, menthol, loam and licorice, lifted by a peppery quality. Juicy and moderately sweet, with strong, brisk acidity framing and intensifying the flavors of bitter cherry and dark chocolate. Not especially fleshy but primary, vibrant and classic. Builds nicely on the energetic finish. I would not be at all surprised if this extremely youthful wine merited a higher score a decade hence. |

VM 97 (1/2021): Cathy Corison's 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Kronos Vineyard marries the brooding intensity of this site with the charm of the year, a combination that makes for a hugely appealing wine. Dark cherry, violet, lavender, menthol and spice fill out the layers. The Kronos Cabernet is typically quite a bit more potent and muscular, but the 2018 is decidedly laid back. Time in the glass brings out a whole range of mineral and savory notes that add striking complexity. Clone 2 on St. George rootstock planted in gravelly soils yield one of the most distinctive Cabernets in Napa Valley. Antonio Galloni.
JD 93 (1/2021): In the same mold, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Kronos Vineyard has a spicy, perfumed, and already complex bouquet of red and black currants, lead pencil, dried tobacco, cigar, and candied violets to go with a medium-bodied, elegant, seamless style on the palate. As with all the wines from this estate, it’s not a blockbuster, but it excels for its balance, purity, complexity, and elegance. Enjoy bottles over the coming two decades.
WA 95+ (5/2022): The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Kronos Vineyard features gentle herbal tendencies, hints of crushed stone and pencil shavings, plus reined-in cassis fruit. Medium to full-bodied (just 13.6% alcohol), it's silky and fine, like the other Corison Cab offerings. These are elegant, restrained food wines, in the best senses of those terms. |
