This is Doubleback's first vintage to include estate-grown grapes in the blend. Truffle, mocha and ripe purple-fruit scents explode from the glass. Ample acidity underscores the chewy tannins. A dense and ageworthy wine, this needs more bottle-age to show its best.

With a kiss of volatility on the nose, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon offers generous and layered aromas of juicy black fruit with hints of dusty redcurrant with blackberry jus. Full-bodied, the tannins are still ripe with a firm layer of present oak that sways with a delightful hint of herbaceous character that pairs beautifully with the generous and juicy nature of the wine. Succulent acidity and fine-grained tannins linger on the elongated finish as flavors of bitter black tea and blackberry skin persist with a youthful gleam. It will continue to age beautifully for years to come. - Anthony Mueller
