Dana Cabernet Sauvignon Hershey Vineyard 2013 Portugal This is a more Rhône-ishTwo wines that I did not see from bottle have turned out to be close to perfection. The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Hershey Vineyard has unbelievable richness, a profound opaque purple color and enormous notes of lead pencil shavings intermixed with blackberry liqueur, white flowers and crushed rock. The wine is full bodied and dense with moderately high tannin, but the tannin is integrated and silky.
