2018 Dunn Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

The Dunn Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is beauty. What a wine. He shows off the wine with enormous richness, power and depth. Fluffy dark fruit, gravel, dried herbs and spices. Well endowed, with waves of slightly warmed plum sauce, blackberry preserves and melted black licorice framed by a note of roasted applewood. Aromas of bay leaf add an attractive range to the muscular finish. Give it a few years to let the baby fat melt away and this is an impressive wine that will be ready to drink around 2023/2024 but can cellar for at least 15 -20 years. The Dunn Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that has matured for 32 months in 100% new French oak.

Antonio Galloni writes about the 2018 Dunn Cabernets: "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a gorgeous wine, especially for Dunn fans who want a wine to drink that won't take forever to come around."

Nothing is easygoing about Randy Dunn's Cabernets, whether it's the dense red wax atop the bottle you need to soften to access the cork, or the uncompromising style that has become his trademark. … The quietly fierce nature of Dunn's wines has never been for all comers. But Dunn has always prided himself on being different.

“Randy Dunn's Cabernet Crusade,” SF Gate
The mountain really determined the style of the wine. It became obvious right away that the grapes up here were much more powerful than down on the valley floor. I just made the wine itself the same way we did at Caymus, it just was a more tannic wine due to the place.
