Decadent yet sophisticated, the 100% Cabernet Sauvignon Patriarch offers a transcending experience of structure and elegant complexity. Sautéed herbs, dark cherry, and bittersweet chocolate notes provide an inviting nose, while dense black fruit, leather, and espresso liqueur flavours come into focus on the palate.
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Patriarch emerges from a section within Winston Hill and is positioned as the top of the range. The Patriarch is inkier, deeper and sweeter than the Winston Hill, but it is not materially better or more complex. If anything, the intensely jammy flavors cover anything that might resemble an expression of place. The generous French oak dries out some of the fruit intensity on the finish. Even so, the 2014 is clearly outstanding. But it could also be better, perhaps meaningfully better. - Antonio Galloni
