This profound wine demonstrates a gorgeous textural richness with an opulent mouthfeel and polished tannins leading up to the exceedingly long finish. On the palate this full-bodied, voluptuous red is well structured and balanced, as it continues to impress with its deep layers and concentrated flavors of ripe dark fruits, sweet spices and mocha, which all cascade across the palate. The result is a simply monumental wine, which delivers seductive aromas of blackberries and dark currants woven together with sweet spices, mocha, graphite, spicebox and hints of floral all coming together and bursting from the glass. The selection of fruit for this wine comes from the best barrels, regardless of what part of the valley they are from. The 2014 'Black Magic' Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterpiece from Tor Kenward.

What's missing is that opinionated modern Napa Cab start that I tasted at the first minute after opening, that "forever life changing spice driven fruit laden juice". The finish remains velvety with balanced acidity and long lingering blueberry notes. On the palette it is sweet dark cherry, blackberry, vanilla and then at the mid palette emerges blueberry, and graphite. The aromas remain quite seductive with blackberry, and mocha dominating. It was almost as if the air had reduced its impact. The result was surprisingly not as good as the initial tasting. Occasionally walking by the decanter to see if any aromas changed.Īfter 3 hours in a decanter I re-bottled and brought this out for my wife to try and maybe confirm.

So like all of my past wow experiences I let this sit for 3 hours. Pop and Poured the wine into a glass and discovered an aromatic modern cab with a wildly fruit driven nose and in fact similar juicy black fruit palette.
