This is 16 despite the label. Awesome nose. Big cherry fruit, some sweet oak, mint, soil tones, and just an amalgam of intense fruit. Really elegant and juicy with lithe silky tannins and such purity. Terrific structure and top notch finesse. Amazing purity and elegance. Long finish and very chewy. I think needs 3-4 years and/or a 3 hour decant. Terrific focus and freshness. Stunning balance. Awesome. Lovely stuff. — 7 years ago

Don’t understand the low ratings this wine received from others delectites. Very light translucent color with distinct cab franc notes on the palate. Very well done. — 8 years ago

Mathes Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2015

Lyle Fass
9.5

This is a special cuvee that Leon only made once to celebrate the birth of his son. It’s a Cabernet/Merlot blend and effing brilliant. Sick nose. Herbal/bell pepper with big cassis, some wood, but not obtrusive. Floral and just beguiling nose. But the palate. My goodness. Elegant and structured with insane sap and structure but the freshness is what really sets this apart. This is magical wine. Wow. — 7 years ago

Gorgeous nose. Leather, red currents, wet moss, tobacco, mint, really terrific vivid aromas. Palate is soft yet juicy with whipsmart acidity. Wonderful freshness and length. So juicy. Very complex and drinking so well. Reminds me of Chateau Le Puy from the Cotes de Francs. @Delectable Wine this is from Wurrtemberg and not California. Thanks! — 8 years ago
