“The Edict Reserve Cab 2018 begins with an elegant nose that includes red raspberries, tart cherries, wet earth, sweet vanilla, and tropic forest florals. This nose leads to a complimentary palate that is medium-full bodied with red and black fruits that include red currants, black cherries, and cigar box, framed by chalky tannins and bright acidity. The structure tells me this one will keep improving over time, and one more bit of evidence is that the last sip out of the bottle was the best. It just kept getting better and better as it opened up. I can’t wait to see where this one goes.”

“This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon reveals beautiful aromas of cedar, raspberries, black currants, and a touch of toasty oak. The wine exudes complexity, medium to full body, stunningly sweet fruit and tannins, and a sense of airiness with even though there is a richness. Its velvety texture and complexity are seductive. We recommend you enjoy this lovely Cabernet over the next 5-8 years.”
