Alpha Omega ERA 2019 Jeb 97+

97+Jeb Dunnuck
The flagship 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon ERA checks in as 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot, and the rest Malbec that spent 20 months in 70% new French oak. A gorgeously pure nose of cassis, blueberries, violets, tobacco, and sandalwood give way to a perfectly balanced, full-bodied, layered 2019 that has great tannins, ample mid-palate depth, and a great, great finish. This classic Napa Valley Cabernet does everything right and never puts a foot wrong, showing fabulous complexity, perfect balance, solid structure, and the class to evolve for 30 years or more. 900 cases.

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon ERA delivers evocative notes of crème de cassis, plum preserves and wild blueberries with touches of tobacco leaf, pencil lead, clove oil and lilacs, plus a hint of crushed rocks. Full-bodied, taut and muscular with exquisitely ripe, fine-grained tannins and bold freshness to support tightly wound flavors, it finishes long and perfumed.
