“Graphite, melted road tar, dark spices and black fruit are some of the signatures that emerge in the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Mythicus. Towering and vertical in the glass, the 2013 possesses magnificent intensity and overall structure. The 100% new oak gives the Mythicus much of its unctuous texture and overall gravitas. Today, the Mythicus is a bit heavy, especially next to the 2014, but it is super-expressive just the same.”
