Lokoya Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon

LOKOYAWINEMAKER’S NOTES:

“Sean Connery, arguably the best actor to portray James Bond, imbued the character with a sense of style, intelligence, strength, masculinity and longevity. Much like Connery’s Bond, the 2012 Lokoya Mount Veeder has a muscularity of structure, a violet-meets-blueberry aromatic with intense fruit characters, and anise and espresso on the palate that remind one that it’s sometimes better to be shaken than stirred.” — Christopher Carpenter, Winemaker

100 Points – Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate – October 2014

“The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder is as compelling a Cabernet Sauvignon as one could ever hope to taste. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from a high-elevation site boasts an inky/purple color, and smells of ink, blueberry liqueur, blackberries, black raspberries, mulberries, licorice, charcoal and camphor. With magnificent fruit richness, a layered, full-bodied mouthfeel, and incredible length, this seamlessly constructed 2012 should provide immense pleasure for 25+ years.”
