WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This Cabernet is bold and expressive, opening with aromas of black cherry and licorice, layered with subtle notes of smoked bacon and dried herbs. The palate is richly textured, showing flavors of mint chocolate, plum, and milk chocolate, carried by fine, chalky tannins that lend structure and grace. A seamless finish lingers with depth and finesse, capturing the essence of Napa Valley.
TASTING NOTES:
Wow, a fresh-tasting, well-balanced Napa cabernet at a very affordable price. It offers raspberries, black cherries and hints of black olives, sage and cocoa on a moderately tannic texture. It shows good concentration and is enjoyable even at this young age.
