Sleeping Lady Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Deep purple in color with a short purple rim.

Pretty nose of blueberries, blackberries, plums, cedar, tobacco leaf, light earth, herbs, spices, chocolates and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, herbs, black tea, peppercorn and espresso.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Soft, rich and elegant. Fruit forward, easy drinking and not in your face kind of wine.

This Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is good right out of the bottle, and better after 3 hours of airtime, which I didn't have this time.

This 9 year old will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and paired nicely with grilled Lamb chops.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in (70% new) French oak barrels for 20 months. A small production of 7,200 bottles.

14.7% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$180.

Rosé De Saignée 1er Cru Brut Champagne Pinot Meunier Pinot Noir

Des arômes de fraise, de canneberges se révèlent sur ce Champagne expressif et frais. Belle mousse avec des bulles asset fines, pas trop vineux pour un PN et avec une belle acidité assez vive, finale de longueur moyenne un brin acidulée avec cette légère rétro de canneberges. 89-90

Strawberries and cranberries on this expressive and fresh Champagne, nice mousse and fairly tight bubbles, not too vinous for a PN, medium length finish with slightly tart cranberries coming back.

Kurt birthday wine. Still really great but liked the way it drank a few years ago. Would go younger on vintage. Maybe 3 years old instead of 7. — 9 months ago

A delicious light summery berry red wine. A very gentle aftertaste. Definitely a mood. Let it breathe for a while — 4 years ago

Domaine des Fines Caillottes Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc

Pale yellow with a nose of green apple & pear with some oak. In the mouth it’s quite smooth with a slight buttery feel and green apple, grapes and pear. Oak is there as well and while dry, a slight hint of sweetness. Very nice! — 3 years ago
