Grgich Hills Estate

Opulence Celebrity Exclusive Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.

Light nose of cedar, blueberries, black currants, coffee and chocolates.

Full-bodied with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red and black fruits with cedar, light vanilla, tobacco, peppercorn, espresso, chocolates, diet cola, herbs and black tea.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 5 year old Napa Cabernet is drinking very nicely now. Bold and fruit forward.

Good by itself or with food. Good right out of the bottle and better after 90 minutes of airtime.

A nice sipping wine.

91 points.

100% chardonnay

firm and long lasting bubbles.

mostly tart citrus with added yeasti charecter and funk hints (from the lees i assume) 👄

9.0

Rich fruit with deep berry notes and good structure. Tannins we’re integrated and had a nice finish. Group enjoyed it as it stood out from other wines as superior quality. As much as I’m not a fan of celebrity wineries, the winemaker is well known and regarded so at least they invested wisely in talent. — 5 years ago

Venge Vineyards

Family Reserve Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Should have waited to open this one. Seems a bit high on the alcohol. Eating at Murano Restaurant on Celebrity Solstice in route to Sidney. Just left Melbourne but will be back next week to visit the local wineries. — 6 years ago

Grgich Hills Estate

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Nice depth of fruit and balance with smoooth tannins. Maybe just a tad too balanced for its age to consider it great. Aboard Celebrity Eclipse. — 7 months ago

Carpenter coming correct!! This is wound up like a starstruck boy around the finger of his celebrity crush. You get hints of all the lovely Pinotness, but it actually needs some decanting (of the second day) to really truly explode. Classic Cali PN, but with a clean mineral depth that speaks of other influences. — 5 years ago
