Black Stallion Winery Transcendent Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Rated 95 by Wine Enthusiast This is a jammy wine with a lot of life. It's moderately structured and fruity in blackberry and cherry flavors. Cedar and dried herb tones add complexity to the expansive midpalate, which is sticky in tannin and oak. It will benefit from more time in the bottle; enjoy 2024–2030

Bottled in a huge black bottle, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Transcendent offers a big, sweet nose of cassis, vanilla bean, crème caramel and spicy oak. Ripe, sexy, nicely balanced and voluptuous, it has sweet tannin, terrific purity of fruit and a great texture. All of this makes for a delicious, sumptuous Napa Cabernet Sauvignon.

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Transcendent is a dense purple color with loads of blueberry and black raspberry notes along with incense and floral notes. This is a serious wine with supple tannins, adequate acidity and fleshy, ripe, pure fruit. This is a beauty that should drink well for 10-15 years.
