It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Deep purple in color with a short purplish rim.

Nose of blackberries, cooked plums, sweet cherries, dried figs, licorice, Indian spices, light wild flowers, chocolates, coffee, cola, cedar, light vanilla, tobacco and black pepper.

Full-bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, prunes, figs, raisins, vanilla, cedar, licorice, cola, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, spices and peppercorn.

Very long finish, with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This young Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is just gorgeous. Nicely balanced with a great mouthfeel. Spicy and entertaining. Showing a beautiful nose with lots of complexity.

It is very unique to find such a young wine with so much complexity. That's so surprising. Rich, yet elegant. Fruit forward and complex with many layers.

Good right out of the bottle, but so much better after 3 hours in the decanter.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 15 to 20 years.

Will pair nicely with a big piece of steak, although it is a great sipping wine, that doesn't need food.

This vintage is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, from 2 Vineyards in Napa Valley. A small production of only 300 cases.

14.9% alcohol by volume.

Another surprisingly dark Pinot from Oregon which is probably why I bought it 3 1/2 years ago. Dark fruits and almost fig-like. A nice aged Pinot. Smooth and long finish. — 7 years ago

I’ve been nursing this bottle for a few days after reviewing it as a press sample and I gotta say, my appreciation for it continues to deepen. It’s a pitch perfect Riesling, at a German Kabinett level of sweetness and without a doubt one of the best Oregon Rieslings I’ve had. And I’ve had a lot of Oregon Riesling, often tasting several dozen each vintage. This wine has jasmine and orange blossom florals mixed with mandarin orange oil and rainwater, Asian pear and wet chalkboard minerality. Gorgeous. — 4 years ago

Very mild on the nose. Tastes like tart cherry cola. Ate with homemade pasta in Tuscany with Bryn (who loved it... I only had two sips cause 30 weeks pg). Paid like $20 at a gift shop in Montepulciano. — 6 years ago
