97-100 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
Read
(97-100) A barrel sample, the 2016 Amoenus Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep purple-black color and is scented of blueberry tart, black forest cake and olive tapenade with touches of bay leaves, underbrush, Sichuan pepper and cedar. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is beautifully soft, velvety and elegant, with understated black fruit and earth layers, finishing with a compelling quiet intensity.

First made in 2009, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Amoenus is a vibrant, full-bodied, incredibly sexy wine that has lifted notes of black and blue fruits, ground pepper, blood orange, and violets. One of the more opulent, powerful wines in the lineup, with sweet tannins and an exotic style, give bottles a year or two and it will keep for two decades.
