Jeb Dunnuck characterizes the 2016 Pulido~Walker Cabernet Sauvignon from the Melanson Vineyard as “a rocking bouquet of chocolaty black and blue fruits, truffle, charcoal embers, and earthy nuances. This full-bodied beauty has a ripe, layered, seamless texture and is perfectly balanced. It’s another gem from the genius of Thomas Rivers Brown.” JebDunnuck.com, January 2019
And he awarded it 98 points. This wine is a stunner!
