Tasting Notes:  

96 points Vinous

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon The Arsenal is a real stunner. All the elements fall into place effortlessly. Mocha, sweet herbs and new leather are laced together in a dramatic wine that brings together voluptuous texture, structure and pure power. The vivid, racy finish is a thing of beauty. This is a fabulous showing from Aaron Pott. (AG)(10/2014)

95 points Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Aaron Pott’s affection for English soccer is found in the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon The Arsenal Greer Vineyard, a two-acre site on Manley Lane sandwiched between two prodigious producers, Scarecrow and Staglin. This is pure, gravel-dominated, loose, loamy soil. This spectacular Cabernet boasts an opaque purple color, abundant aromas of pen ink, damp, sweet red dirt, rich blackcurrants, licorice and cedarwood. Opulent, full-bodied and irresistible already, this is a sensational, complex, multidimensional Cabernet Sauvignon to drink over the next 15-20 years. (RP) (10/2014)

92 points Wine Spectator

Deliciously rich and juicy, with a plush, supple texture that lets the blackberry, black currant and plum flavors flow freely. Tightens on the finish, where mocha and black licorice notes emerge. Drink now through 2027. (JL)(11/2015)
