Category: 10 YEAR- 2015

"The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Gravelly Meadow is super-expressive in the glass, especially in its aromatics. Cedar, tobacco, lavender, dried herbs, menthol, licorice and a host of dark stone fruits emerge with time in the glass, but only with some reluctance. The 2015 is going to need a few years to open up, but it, too, is shaping up to be relatively accessible by Diamond Creek standards. Reviewed December 2018. Vinous (AG) "Soy, tabacoo and dried herb mark this appropriately named wine, which does indeed have a gravelly, chalky aspect to its texture and taste. From a five acre vineyard block of the estate, it is endlessly complex and nuanced, depsite its full-bodied richness and concentration. Reviewed December 2018. Wine Enthusiast (VB)"

Eva ★★★★★

The cedar and tobacco notes on the nose are exactly what I look for in a well-aged Cab, and the dark fruit is deep without being jammy. This 2015 has a velvety mouthfeel that makes it dangerously easy to drink.

Nicholas K. ★★★★★

The dark stone fruit flavors really come through after you let it breathe for a bit, and that lavender and licorice finish lingers nicely. I’ve had a few Napa cabs from this vintage, but this one feels more layered and complex than most. Definitely a solid buy for the price.

Zoe M. ★★★★★

That cedar and tobacco on the nose is exactly what I was hoping for — the dried herbs and dark stone fruits come through beautifully on the palate. Perfect with a ribeye.
