    Kapcsandy Estate Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon 2017, meticulously crafted by renowned winemaker Tony Arcudi at Kapcsandy Family Winery, is a testament to the art of winemaking. This exquisite blend, predominantly Kapcsandy Cabernet Sauvignon, is complemented with Merlot and Petit Verdot, culminating in a production of only 250 cases. This limited edition makes the Kapcsandy Estate Cuvee a highly sought-after treasure for connoisseurs.

    The Kapcsandy Estate Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 mesmerizes with its semi-opaque ruby hue, inviting the eye with promises of depth and complexity. It expresses a classic, almost nostalgic Cabernet nose. Red and black currants interweave with indulgent chocolate, exotic sandalwood, the distinct sharpness of freshly sharpened pencils, and a tapestry of dried herbs. This Kapcsandy Cabernet Sauvignon radiates elegance and complexity.

    On the palate, the Kapcsandy Family Winery Estate Cuvee unfolds its layers with finesse. Medium to full-bodied, it offers a harmonious blend of ripe, yet progressively building tannins and good acidity. The result is a Kapcsandy wine with a remarkable finish, leaving a lasting impression of refined grace.

    The oak regimen of the Kapcsandy Estate Cuvee is notably unique, with 55% new French oak, 18% new Hungarian oak, and 27% second fill French oak. This innovative approach imparts a distinct character to the Kapcsandy Family Winery Cabernet Sauvignon, enhancing its overall complexity and texture.

    Critically acclaimed, the Kapcsandy Estate Cuvee has garnered impressive scores from notable wine critics. The Wine Advocate awarded it 93 points, celebrating its deep garnet-purple color and an abundance of baked black cherries, mulberries, and warm cassis aromas. Notes of lilacs, cinnamon stick, cedar chest, and clove oil add to its allure. The palate is greeted with black and blue fruits, a fragrant floral edge, plush tannins, and a spicy, fresh finish.

    Jeb Dunnuck praised it with 96 points, highlighting its Chateau Margaux-like complexity and sexiness. He notes its blueberries, red currants, incense, and spicy oak, along with a rounded, fruit-forward, and textured profile. Vinous also rated it 96 points, admiring its rich, smoky, and inviting nature, coupled with flavors of tobacco, cedar, leather, smoke, licorice, and incense. Wilfred Wong, giving it 95 points, underscored its depth and complexity, with an emphasis on its black fruit aromas and flavors.

    The Kapcsandy Family Winery State Lane Vineyard Estate Cuvee, through its intricate blend and expert crafting, stands as a shining example of the Kapcsandy winemaker’s skill and dedication. This Kapcsandy wine, especially the Kapcsandy Estate Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon, is not just a drink but an experience, embodying the rich heritage and innovative spirit of the Kapcsandy Family Winery. As each sip unfolds, it tells the story of its Napa Valley origin, the meticulous care in its creation, and the passion that drives the Kapcsandy winemaking philosophy.

      I’ve just popped open a bottle of Kapcsandy Estate Cuvée 2012! The rich oak and dark fruit notes are balanced beautifully with a hint of smoke. A true paso robles gem!

    2. Isabel Thompson

      The Kapcsandy 2012 is a blissful mix of dark chocolate, cedar and blueberry notes. It’s a beautiful wine with a rich aroma. A great value buy!

    3. Mark Solomon

      The Kapcsandy State Lane Vineyard Estate Cuvée 2012 is a delightful blend of chocolate and black fruit notes, with a hint of vanilla. Perfect for a cosy evening in!

    4. Bryan Ottrix

      Sampling the Kapcsandy 2012, the mix of mushroom and sweet tobacco is intriguing. The saxum james berry vineyard has done wonders here! Highly recommend.

    5. Larry Way

      Treated myself to a bottle of Kapcsandy State Lane Vineyard Estate Cuvée 2012! Loving the black cherry and raspberry notes. It’s a perfect food pairing wine.

    6. Mason Gutierrez

      The 2012 Kapcsandy Cuvée is an earthy wine with a punch of cherry and blackberry. The subtle hint of leather and tobacco adds an intriguing complexity.

      The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Cuvée is a blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot. It was aged in 55% new French oak, 18% new Hungarian oak and 27% second fill French oak. Deep garnet-purple in color, it strolls nonchalantly out of the glass with forward notes of baked black cherries, mulberries and warm cassis plus wafts of lilacs, cinnamon stick, cedar chest and clove oil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate rolls easily over the tongue with gregarious black and blue fruits plus a fragrant, floral edge and plush tannins, finishing with plenty of freshness and spicy kick. 250 cases were made.

    8. WIL

      The 2017 Kapcsándy Family Winery Estate Cuvée Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterful wine with outstanding depth and complexity. TASTING NOTES: This wine packs aromas and flavors of generous and impressive black fruit. Enjoy it with a juicy, grilled ribeye.

    9. Richard Ray

      Just tried the Kapcsandy State Lane Vineyard Estate Cuvée 2012. The blackcurrant and plum notes are delightful, with a hint of earthy minerals. Justin smith is a great winemaker!

    10. Neil Feezell

      The 2012 Kapcsandy is a real treat! The notes of red fruit and licorice blend harmoniously, with a subtle hint of cinnamon. Fast shipping from famelounge-ps.com too!

    Leading off the 2017s from barrel, the 2017 Estate Cuvee is Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated and includes 8% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot. This beauty has a Château Margaux-like complexity as well as sexiness, followed by notes of blueberries, red currants, incense, and spicy oak. It's rounded, fruit-forward, and textured, with the forward, fleshy, flamboyant style of the vintage front and center. It doesn't have the density of the 2016 yet is more approachable.

    The 2017 Estate Cuvée has turned out beautifully. Rich, smoky and inviting, the 2017 will, uncharacteristically, drink well pretty much upon release. In 2017, the Estate is a bit broader and richer than it usually is, but all of the elements are in the right place. To be sure, the natural richness of 2017 is evident, but at the same time Lou and Louis Kapcsándy have done a terrific job in avoiding the hard tannins that are found in so many wines. Tobacco, cedar, leather, smoke, licorice and incense add to a feeling of gravitas and pure power. This is an impressive showing.
