Medium to full-bodied beautiful and restrained with savoury aromatics of fennel black liquorice cedar and black currants. Soft satiny blackberry fruits are lifted by fine-grained yet supple tannins while a purity of fruit guides the palate to a long tobacco-tinged finish marked by a mineral-freshness that beckons sip after sip?100% Cabernet aged 18 months in 50% new French oak barrels. (Drink between 2023-2035)
James Suckling: 92 Points
Quite fruit-expressive and floral with spiced dark cherries rust baked plums hibiscus and violet extract on the nose. Rich and fruity with tart cherries cassis and dried herbs on the palate. Full-bodied and juicy with silky tannins that smoothen it out. Drink or hold.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
Corison fans should enjoy the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon. Gentle herbal streaks run through the wine's classic black cherries and cassis fruit. Medium-bodied sleek and streamlined it shows vibrant energy and ample length framed by gentle silky tannins. Published: Dec 29 2023

The base 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon is pretty with a medium-bodied elegant style as well as lots of sappy herbs flowers and currant-driven aromatics fine tannins and nicely integrated acidity. Drink this balanced satisfying old school Cabernet over the coming 10-12 years or so. This Cuv e spent 18 months in 50% new oak.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a heady potent wine that shows the heat of the year in its forward opulent personality. Super-ripe black cherry plum chocolate herbs earthiness and licorice are all amplified in this decidedly exuberant potent wine. There's not a lot of subtlety and plenty of impact. Even so this opens nicely with aeration. (Drink between 2023-2028)
