Herman Story 'Bolt Cutter' 2020

94 Points Jeb Dunnuck

An interesting blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Petit Verdot, and 25% Syrah from a multitude of vineyards, the 2017 Bolt Cutter reveals a dense purple color as well as lots of cassis fruit, notes of ground pepper, bouquet garni (thyme/rosemary), and chocolate, full-bodied richness, and a rich, super-plush, sexy texture. It's another classic Herman Story wine that will put a smile on your face any time over the coming 5-7 years or more.
