An opulent, full-throttle wine, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Lightning Bolt dazzles from start to finish. Quite simply, it is the most striking wine I have ever tasted from Coup de Foudre. The 2018 is a rich, sumptuous Cabernet loaded with fruit. Inky dark red fruit, mocha, spice, new leather, licorice and chocolate infuse the 2018 with tremendous richness and volume. Soft curves and silky tannins add to its immeasurable appeal. This exotic, beautiful Cabernet is just gorgeous.

Lastly, the flagship 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Lightning Bolt checks in as 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that comes from clones 191 and 15 and was brought up 28 months in new French oak. Its deep purple hue gives way to a rich, concentrated, backward red with lots of blue fruits, camphor, spicy oak, and candied violet-like aromas and flavors. Beautifully concentrated and full-bodied, with the purity and freshness that’s the hallmark of the vintage, this remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon will benefit from 3-5 years of bottle age and keep for two decades.
