Adversity Cellars 2021 Melanson Vineyard Cabernet

The 2021 Melanson has big hips, and she likes to move them. Beautiful pure blue fruit notes with hints of cocoa, blueberry, cherry, and mocha. It starts with a silky smooth texture and builds in intensity, finishing with power and seduction. The Melanson full-bodied nature exudes a captivating allure that's hard to resist.

Robert Parker - 96-98 Points

"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Melanson Vineyard looks even better from barrel than the 2019 from bottle, with balanced, harmonious scents of graham crackers, blueberries and cassis on the nose. It's full-bodied but supple, smooth and almost silky in feel without being soft. Winemaker Russell Bevan has done a better job managing the tannins this vintage, leading into a long, intense, licorice-tinged finish."
