2018 California Cabernet Sauvignon Wines Tasted

 

2018 California Cabernet Sauvignon Wines Tasted



Like floors in a Highrise, I skipped the thirteenth floor for singling-out my thirteenth year of listing just a particular vintage (2017) of Cali Cabs and skipped straight to the 2018s having only tasted less than a handful of the 2017s. Maybe it's a consequence of two major surgeries or just an uninspired vintage, I'm not sure, maybe both.
