ARNOT-ROBERTS

Cabernet Sauvignon Clajeux Vineyard 2013

- 94 points -

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Clajeux Vineyard is a superb example of the Chalk Hill appellation. Graphite, smoke, grilled herbs, black fruit, game and savory herbs meld together in a dense, powerful, intensely mineral-driven Cabernet Sauvignon. A very slight touch of brett gives the Clajeux much of its distinctive Old World personality. As long as readers know what to expect, the Clajeux is a wine full of personality. The Arnot-Roberts 2013 Cabernets were all done with 30% whole clusters and aged in 30% new oak.
