 "A small production, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a structured wine. Its dense tannins are paralleled by the dense black-currant fruits. Still in its youth, it needs to age. Drink from 2026. - Roger VOSS"

2021 Le Big Boss Cabernet Sauvignon - 92 PTS - GOLD - BTI

bti gold 2023"Ruby black color. Aromas and flavors of sautéed bell pepper and caramelized sweet onion, black olive and clove, cedar shavings, and smoky pork fat with a satiny, lively, dry medium body and an appealing, medium-length finish imparting nuances of red cherry, cedar and purple flowers, savory herbs and sautéed greens, and coffee rubbed grilled mushrooms with a suggestion of oak flavor. Earthy and distinctly Old World; complex enough to pair with an extravagant dinner but approachable enough to have on your average Tuesday evening."
