1.5 Liter Magnum
93-96 Points Vinous
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Social Currency, bottled in magnum only, is one of the highlights in this range from Dakota Shy. Today, it is also the most complete and expressive of the wines. Ample and creamy, with striking inner sweetness, the 2018 is just dazzling. Blackberry jam, chocolate, licorice, spice, menthol and lavender infuse the 2018 with captivating perfume and richness. All the elements meld together in a striking, sumptuous Cabernet Sauvignon that hits all the right notes. In a word: stunning.
Winemaker Note
Displays a totally sensuous range of aromas ñ dense black cherry, chocolate, stone and licorice. On the palate this is powerful and incredibly flavorful with an exquisitely framed, lusciously-textured core. Delicious, powerful, rich, detailed and multi-layered this stays true to Social Currencyís sophisticated hedonism. Incredible depth, persistence and balance with silken tannin structure. This is a wine for cellaring will even more exceptional with cellaring ñ but that will be a challenge given how delicious it is young.
