Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley-3 Pack
A bold and balanced Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, with enticing notes of black cherry, cassis, leather and dark chocolate with hints of savory spice. Excellent now but can age well for over a decade.
ACCOLADES
• JamesSuckling.com (93 Points)
“A rich, layered red with ripe berry, plum and some cedar and oak. It’s medium-to full-bodied with chewy tannins and a medium austere finish. Some toast and bitterness at the end. Give it time to open. Try after 2022.”
• Jeb Dunnuck (92 Points)
“A wine that’s sold only at the estate, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon checks in as 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot, all from a mountainous terroir in the northern part of the valley. Lots of smoked red and black fruits, saddle leather, dried herbs, tobacco, and cedar all emerge from this beauty, which is medium to full-bodied has a rounded, mouth-filling texture, and by this appellation’s standards, relatively moderate, soft tannins. This charmer is going to evolve for a solid decade or more.”
