Caravan Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, deep Ruby color with aromas of dark fruit, sweet spice and herbs. On the palate flavors of cherry and blackberry with tobacco, cinnamon spice, toasty oak and herb notes. Firm tannins, long finish ending with fruit, spice, oak, herb and mineral character, Nice, should age a bit. — 6 months ago

Cent Pour Cent Merlot 2016

@Delectable Wine - this is NOT the Cent pour Cent cuvée. It is the regular IGP Merlot.

Great and funky nose shows a fair amount of barnyard leading a caravan of plush dark cherry and ripe red berry fruit. Bit of sweet spice too. On the palate, it’s got kids of gravelly earth and dark berry ooze, and the texture shows lots of soft but unobtrusive tannin. Nice balance. An astounding value.

Very enjoyable. Rich but light enough to session with when you’re in a caravan in Margate. Italian paired food — 7 months ago

stop everything, corner yourself, and plunge into this rutabaga, flocked titanium frame, licorice root, tarmac, damp earth, distant diesel, stewed tomato, crushed petal, oleander?, cherry meat, candied gossamer violet caravan. this juice is a vampiric traffic cop with crawdad pincers, it halts and releases you in a screaming fluorescent red vest with unregulated grip. surrender or die. — 2 years ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2016

Fantastic nose. Dark berries and jam just the way I like it. The palate was a bit disappointing at first. Right and out of balance, almost bitter out of the bottle. But by the end it had smoothed out and was more dark fruit with good acid. I bet if we had time to decant first an hour or more it would have opened up. Oddly. — 4 years ago

Unsure - Somewhere in between getting whipped with a "slut paddle" and something more low key like getting finger banged in the back of a 1994 Dodge Caravan #age14 - I mean, good tho. Would enjoy again — 7 years ago

I haven’t tried a bad ‘petits Monts’ Drouhin may be the best but lookout for mugneret too. I need to try to Louis latour just to see if they’re on point as well

@Alex Lallos completely agree on Mugneret. Incredible depth and completeness there.

Caravan Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2016

Beautiful berries, cocoa nibs and coffee on the nose. The nose is incredibly inviting and the wine is very tasty. Great blend of Cab Sauv, Cab Franc and Merlot. I'd drink every day if I could. @Sara Mau picked this one out at Wine Watch and I'm thrilled with her choice. — 4 years ago
