2014カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン
Currants and plums framed beautifully by herbs and spice. Swirling adds sweetness to the fruit and a hint of mocha. The nose is stunningly refined with everything perfectly in its place. The palate has tremendous presence and length with fine, palate coating tannins. An impeccably refined new world Cabernet Sauvignon.

受賞歴と称賛の声
"Leafy herbs, plums, blueberries and violet notes all emerge from Matthews' 2014 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. A blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc, it's fresh and focused on the palate, with a streamlined, elegant style. Drink it over the coming decade or more."

"Bright ruby-red. Slightly high-toned aromas and flavors of cassis, blackberry, licorice and dusty brown spices. Densely packed, ripe and tactile but quite dry; a plush style of Cabernet but more youthfully clenched than the Merlot, finishing with more serious tannins. But this wine too is suave and edge-free. This has to be the best set of new releases I've tasted to date from Matthews Winery."
