2021 Crown Point Relevant Cabernet Sauvignon
93 Points - Jeb Dunnuck: The deep ruby/plum-hued 2021 Relevant checks in as 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Merlot that spent 20 months in one-third new oak. It would be a great introduction into the wines of this estate and has upfront, ripe, opulent aromas and flavors of black fruits, chocolaty herbs, espresso, graphite, and tobacco leaf. Beautifully textured, full-bodied, with plenty of tannins, it's perfect for drinking any time over the coming decade or more.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast: Intensely dark blueberry and cassis aromas are cut by hints of meat and dry oak on the nose of this estate's entry-level bottling, which includes 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petite Verdot. Chalky, firm tannins frame the fresh blackberry flavors of the sip, where a dusting of pepper spice floats through the long-lingering finish.
