Freemark Abbey Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 Review
It’s fine and needs time, even though it's five years old. The tannins are still ornery and bitter and will soften over time, but the alcohol is there forever, and it’s high, making it a primary aroma that masks what would be blueberry and plum notes and maybe also some pepper. This is a wine you buy for the collector in your life that digs on that oaky era of Cali cult Cabs. Get ready to shell out some dough though.
