Still fresh and cedary, the 2014 Tom Cullity Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec is dark and concentrated, with mixed berries forming the base of this medium to full-bodied wine. It's lush and velvety, drinkable now but intense enough to hold well in the cellar and gain complexity for over a decade.
Vinous

Brilliant purple. Expressive, oak-accented cherry, black currant, cedary oak and rose pastille aromas are complemented by suggestions of vanilla and cured tobacco. Sweet, seamless and penetrating in the mouth, offering deeply concentrated dark berry preserve, cherry and spicecake flavors and a building vanilla note. Shows superb focus and alluring sweetness on a strikingly long, juicy finish that features repeating florality and smooth, slow-building tannins. 62% new French oak.

The wild blueberry and blackberry flavors are intense, set on a tight frame, with accents of bay leaf and black pepper, tightening the velvety grip on the finish. Shows terrific focus and concentration. Should be exciting to see this evolve further. Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Drink now through 2035. 120 cases imported.
