Santa Rita Medalla Gold Medal Cabernet Sauvignon / 750 ml

A nicely ripe nose with dark currants, spices and a hint of cocoa. Winemaker Sebastian Labbe says they are trying to make a 2020-style from the cooler, more classic 2021. Still quite juicy and well-poised on the medium- to full-bodied palate, even though it is picked later than the Medalla Real range. Drink now. 91 Points James Suckling
