Int'l Wine Review
Reviewed June 2023Sourced from the Lerner's Estate Vineyard high on Diamond Mountain, the 2021 Armstrong Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine to behold. This stunning Cabernet begins to captivate as it delivers beautifully nuanced aromas of ripe blackcurrants, dark cherries and hints of bramble fruit, along with lavender, florals, licorice, herbs and graphite all building in the glass. It possesses a gorgeous full-bodied texture with impeccable overall structure and balance, in combination with remarkable depth and focus. It goes on to display a striking sense of freshness, purity and verve as it comes to an end with a precise, ultra-long finish that seems to linger on forever. All the wines from Lerner Project have been nothing short of magnificent in this vintage, however there is something extra special about the quality of the Armstrong Ranch in 2021 that takes it to another level. This is a wine for the ages. (JD)

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Armstrong Ranch—from the project's home vineyard on Diamond Mountain—features subdued, gentle herbal nuances underscored by black cherries and blackberries. There's considerable zip and zest here, resulting in positive tension and ample complexity. Full-bodied, firm and muscular but ripe, it moves into a long, velvety finish tinged with hints of dark chocolate. (JC)

Coming all from the estate on Diamond Mountain and all varietal, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Armstrong Vineyard sports a deep purple hue to go with a gorgeous perfume of ripe blue fruits, dark chocolate, creosote, and crushed stone. It's a big, rich wine yet has gorgeous balance, terrific purity, and the vintage's focused, elegant, fresher style. Give it a few years.
