It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Deep Inky in color with a very short reddish rim.

Strong nose of blackberries, black currants, black plums, tobacco, cedar, vanilla, licorice, chocolates, spices and peppercorn.

Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with black currants, plums, tobacco, blackberries, chocolates, herbs, spices, earth, light vanilla, cedar, licorice, light cola and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This is a delicious, yet still young, Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Already drinking beautifully, but feels very young and needs 10 to 20 years in the bottle to mature property.

This 10 year old Single Vineyard Cabernet is nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Elegant and fruit forward.

Needed 4 hours in the decanter to open up properly.

Wine Advocate 99 points. Wine Spectator 96 points.

A good quality wine. Complex, powerful and interesting. Always nice to drink these kind of iconic wines. Delicious stuff.

A wonderful sipping wine that also paired nicely with my steak.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

94 points.

Not shutdown/closed, just not revealing a whole lot. I was impressed by its body and persistent finish. Unfortunate with the timing. — 7 months ago

Colour is very pale with just the lightest hint of coral pink. It’s off-dry with lots of ripe tropical fruits on the noise and palate - cantaloupe, peach, and a hint of floral. It’s a very interesting blend of grapes. — 4 months ago

Quite a nice listan negro dominated blend from the Canary Islands. Great restrained fruit, excellent peppery earthy note, not overwhelming at all but complete. Good pairing with a variety of food at shukette. — 4 years ago
