Tasting Notes

Like the vintage itself, the 2014 Arietta Cabernet Sauvignon is defined by freshness, varietal definition, and a bright, focused
demeanor. The core Cabernet Sauvignon component expresses itself beautifully here, with a burnished texture, black fruit
flavors and aromas, and hints of crushed stones and freshly dug soil. The addition of 6% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot
adds layers of complexity and enjoyment to the wine, with notes of pencil shavings, cardamom, and dried flowers. This young
wine benefits from a pre-service decanting, and will continue to open and expand over the next 10-15 years.

    The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is a polished, elegant wine. Medium in body, the 2014 graces the palate with bright red stone fruit and floral nuances. The new oak still needs time to integrate, so I would give the 2014 at least another year or two in bottle. It will be interesting to see if the 2014 gains weight in bottle. Today, it is decidedly on the lighter side of things, even within the context of the vintage. – Antonio Galloni (May 2017)
