Clearly, the attention to detail was brought over from Bordeaux to South Africa at the hands of May de Lencquesing, former owner of Pichon Lalande. These are our last bottles of this one, and it is a fantastic value not to miss.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #000000;\"\u003eThis is an incredible bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, and due to the favorable exchange rate with South Africa, it's an absolute steal for the money. It comprises 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, with the balance being Cabernet Franc and Petite Verdot. In 2003, at the age of 78, May de Lencquesaing, then owner of the Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, purchased the estate. As many may know, May de Lencquesing sold Pichon Lalande in 2010 and moved to South Africa to devote all her time to the Glenelly Estate. Luke O'Cuinneagain, the talented wine-maker at the Glenelly Estate, has worked at Chateau Fieuzel and Chateau Angeleus in Bordeaux as well as Screaming Eagle in Napa Valley making. The vineyard for this wine is a small amphitheater planted in 2003 after May de Lencquesaing purchased the estate. The vines have been farmed organically since inception, and the natural yield on this site is pretty low. This wine sees about twenty-four months in new French oak and is bottled unfined and unfiltered. The aromas of cassis, liquid minerals, spice, and earth jump from the glass. The palate is dense and concentrated, but the wine has terrific acidity that gives it perfect balance with a kaleidoscope finish. This is an absolute must-buy for the lover of Bordeaux and New World Cabernet Sauvignon, and it's the best Cabernet-based wine we have tried this year for under $100. Don't miss this one; it is an incredible bottle for the money made by some very qualified people!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eTim Atkin 97 pts!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003e Right up there with the best Stellenbosch Bordeaux-style blends from the exceptional 2017 vintage, this is a distinguished, patrician wine where everything is in place: tannins, acidity, oak and fruit concentration.

The floral element is toned down compared to the 2016.

Forman Cabernet Sauvignon reminds us of a young left-bank Bordeaux, very refined and classic, and an excellent buy at this special pricing. Ric Forman has been making outstanding Cabernet for years, starting with the purchase of his winery and beautiful vineyard site at the base of Howell Mountain in 1978. By 1983, he had begun making Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, which would be the basis for his success. Inspired by the European winemaking tradition, Forman has consistently produced wines that demonstrate restraint, prioritizing vineyard and vintage expression over extraction or power. His Cabernet Sauvignon has an incredible track record, and 2021 is a standout vintage that can be approached now but will only improve with time in the cellar. In Forman fashion, this Cabernet Sauvignon captures the best of the vintage. 2021 Forman is a fantastic, very reasonable old-school Napa Cab, and you can get two bottles for less than the price of one of its peers, making it a tremendous buy for the category!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eAntonio Galloni 96 points!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003e \" The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is a polished, silky offering.
