HUNDRED ACRE 2016 Ark Vineyard 100 points

JD100 "Similarly purple-hued, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Kayli Morgan Vineyard is more backward and closed compared to the 2015, but it’s certainly loaded with potential. Giving up a rock star bouquet of cedar pencil, cassis, darker currant, white flowers, espresso, and smoke tobacco, it hits the palate with an incredibly sexy, seamless texture that carries ultra-fine tannins, remarkable purity of fruit, subtle oak, and a great, great finish. The 2015 is certainly more showy at this point, but I think the 2016 will surpass it around age 10. I certainly look forward to finding out!" JD Jun 2020 RP99 "Deep garnet colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Kayli Morgan Vineyard tumbles out with free-flowing, flamboyant crème de cassis, blackberry pie and boysenberry preserves scents, followed by fragrant earth, wet rocks, dried roses and tobacco leaf hints. The full-bodied palate has a stunningly plush texture and amazing harmony, featuring achingly beautiful earth and fruit preserves layers with loads of floral accents and a very long finish. Breathtaking!" LPB for TWA Published: Dec 16, 2021
