2013 Kapcsandy Family Winery, State Lane Vineyard Grand Vin Cabernet Sauvignon, Yountville 1x750ml

Vinous 98

Kapcsandy’s 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Vin remains a powerhouse. Inky dark fruit, leather, incense, plum and blackberry and espresso saturate the palate in this decidedly heady, extroverted Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2013 is a rich wine that has aged well [Antonio Galloni, 09/05/2024]

Anticipated maturity: 2024-2033

Robert Parker 100

Little can be added to the greatness of the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Vin, a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot. The wine (600 cases) is truly stunning in its dense, creme de cassis and blackberry-scented nose with a hint of barbecue smoke and forest floor. Tasting like a ripe vintage of Chateau Latour from Pauillac, the wine has amazing richness and a savory, expansive mouthfeel, but tiptoes across the palate like a ballerina. A wine of magnificent richness and intensity, but vibrancy, purity and overall equilibrium, this is a staggeringly great wine and another tribute to the Kapcsandy family’s extraordinary professionalism and meticulous attention to detail in their vineyard.
