Mitolo Jester Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 (90 JD)
“Lots of tobacco, chocolaty dark fruits, and a hint of wood smoke all emerge from the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Jester, which hits the palate with a full-bodied, layered, incredibly sexy style that just begs to be drunk. Aged 19 months in used French oak, enjoy it over the coming 3-4 years.”
