Crafted from mountain and valley-floor fruit, this voluptuous wine reveals aromas of spiced blackberry, blueberry cobbler, black currant, milk chocolate and licorice. On the palate, lively acidity adds poise and brightness to the blackberry and black raspberry flavors, with rich, chocolaty tannins and notions of black tea adding suppleness and sophistication to a long, luxurious finish.
Blend: 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc
TASTING NOTES:
A bright, juicy, and lifted wine with succulent blueberry and black cherry fruits, black currants, clove, graphite, and new wood cedar. Medium to full bodied with supple tannins. A burst of refreshing acidity through the finish makes for an excellent dinner table Cabernet from this iconic producer.
- Decanter, 93 pts.
Food friendly, and delicious, this Cabernet Sauvignon combines flavors of dark fruit with savory herbs, fennel, and a sprinkle of sweet spices. Approachable tannins and balanced acidity make this a go-to Napa Valley wine.
