Very deep purple-black in color, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate slowly reveals enticing notions of fresh blackberries, wild blueberries and black raspberries with emerging suggestions of cassis, tilled earth, tar and tobacco leaf. Full-bodied, the palate delivers firm, beautifully ripe tannins and tons of tightly wound, muscular black fruits with a whole myriad of savory accents and great tension, finishing with jaw-dropping purity and length. Consider broaching this sleeping giant in 4-5 years and drink it over the next 25 years+.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Nathan Coombs Estate is an outrageously beautiful wine. Vivid, rich and explosive, the Nathan Coombs pulses with tremendous energy and raw power wrapped around a core of inky red/purplish fruit. Iron, sage, menthol, licorice and red fruit are all laced together in a striking Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon that shows just how pedigreed wines from this southern appellation can be. A whole range of floral and savory notes extend into the clenched finish.

A menthol note opens up first, quickly followed by steeped plum, blackberry and açaí berry flavors. Sweet bay leaf, singed alder and licorice root notes fill in on the finish, without crowding the fruit, which sails through nicely. Really well-built. Best from 2022 through 2038. 309 cases made.
