Occasional Wine Note: Another stunner from Turnbull, this Black Label is the epitomy of the fantastic Cabernets you'll find in Oakville. This wine greets you with beautiful bouquet of flowers, ripe black cherries, and earthy undertones. The mouthfeel is full and elegant with more of those luscious cherries, a bit of spice, and great tannin. This is a luxurious drinking experience you'll want to add to an equally opulent dining one.

Stunning stuff, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Black Label offers a full-bodied, deep, majestic style as well as beautiful aromatics of creme de cassis, violets, flowers, and nicely integrated background oak. It has ultra-fine tannins, flawless balance, and a regal, age-worthy style that has so much to love. It, however, is not going to be for the instant gratification crowd and this actually shut down pretty quickly with air. Rating: 97+

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Black Label is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, drawn from the Fortuna (66%) and Leopoldina (34%) vineyards. A best-barrel selection, it offers up classic Oakville scents of black cherries and loamy earth, with a gentle cassis undertone. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with a long, velvety finish, this is a solid wine, with as much as two decades of age-ability.
