Black truffle. Full-bodied with superb depth of fruit and plush and chewy tannins that give tension and length. It reminds me of the 1975 La Mission Haut Brion because of the stone, iodine and purple fruits.

Only a minute later does your mouth find release as this thread of crunchy acidity begins to sweep away the powerful tannins to reveal the underlying blue fruit and violet aromatics that are so beautifully pure and youthful.

It's concentrated, has massive extract and richness, no shortage of tannins, and a huge finish. 98+\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98pts Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from a single block of the estate Veeder Peak Vineyard (1,800 feet above sea level), Lokoya's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder boasts plenty of cedar, bay leaf and cherries on the nose. This wine shows a more linear nature than the other Lokoya bottlings, being full-bodied but streamlined, velvety and concentrated, with a long, richly textured finish.

The full-bodied palate delivers impressive tension, with a rock-solid frame of ripe grainy tannins and powerful black fruits, finishing long and spicy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96pts Wine Spectator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffers a very, very serious core of dark, winey blackberry pâte de fruit, plum reduction and boysenberry compote coated liberally with ganache, roasted apple wood and anise notes. Shows a fleshy, velvety edge, but there's a bolt of iron buried here, keeping this ramrod straight through the finish. A long violet echo shows its purity, but patience is required, as the structure is very strident.
