Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 Staglin

Avis professionnels

James Suckling (94)

A creamy, fruity white, yet it remains tight and formed with bright acidity from the lack of malolactic fermentation. Full-to medium-bodied, vivid and fresh. Stones and dried fruit at the finish. Drinkable now, but another year or two will make it even more complex.

I was able to taste two wines from Staglin Family, both showing brilliantly. An utterly ultra-classic Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon from Staglin sports a deep ruby/plum color to go with a gorgeous bouquet of ripe blackcurrant and blackberry fruits as well as spicy oak, chocolate, smoked tobacco, and lead pencil shavings. Full-bodied, perfectly balanced, rich, and opulent, yet also pure and precise, this might be the finest vintage of this cuvée ever produced. It will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and has 40-50 years of longevity ahead of it.
