This is the last vintage the designation 'Cask' was used for Inglenook's Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2012 is in a great spot right now, where all the elements have come together and the wine is super-expressive. 
We have had the pleasure of tasting the 2012 Inglenook Cask Reserve at a variety of tastings and dinners over the last few months. What stands out is a haunting combination of cherry at the front front palate which is then joined by mellow plum and cassis, entirely wrapped in exotic spice and mineral. The more breathing time you give the cask the more complex it becomes. T he average price nationally is $71.00. The lowest price in the state is $70.00. We have been allotted 60 bottle which we can sell at $51.50. This is a serious " cellar treasure" wine. Reviews below.

All of the very best, Rex and Michele

There have been a number of changes of late at Inglenook, so I was anxious to taste the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Cask. This wine was first created in 1949 and during that era, through the 50s and early 60s, was considered one of the finest wines of California. This is the best, young Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon I have tasted during my professional career of 35 years. Dense ruby/purple with classic crème de cassis, but underlying minerality and spice box. The wine is full-bodied, but not over-the-top, yet nevertheless authoritative, rich and quite long. There is a thickness and concentration I haven't seen from this estate in many a year and this wine should age beautifully for 20-25 years at the very minimum. 93+ (RP) (10/2014)

A bold, dramatic wine, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Cask offers plenty of the radiance of the vintage, along with sweet floral and spice notes that add lift to the expressive red fruit. Deep, unctuous and supple throughout, the 2012 Cask is an excellent choice for drinking over the next few years. Dark cherry, raspberry jam and mocha with attractive smoky savory underpinnings add the closing shades of nuance in this very pretty, silky Cabernet Sauvignon from Inglenook. The 2012 has really blossomed over the last year. This is the last vintage the designation 'Cask' was used for Inglenook's Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2012 is in a great spot right now, where all the elements have come together and the wine is super-expressive. (AG) (10/2015)

A firm and silky red with currant, light chocolate and walnut aromas and flavors. Ultra-fine tannins. Full to medium body, delicately austere tannins and a pretty finish. Second wine of Inglenook. Drink or hold. (5/2016)
