The Pact Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Inky in color with a short purple rim.

Strong nose of black fruits with chocolate notes, cedar, vanilla and cola.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked plums, cedar, tobacco, vanilla, licorice, cola, coffee, black pepper, dried figs, graphite, light earth, herbs and spices.

Long spicy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This 6 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Coombsville is drinking beautifully now. Big and bold. Rich and extracted.

Well balanced with a soft mouthfeel. Fruit forward and elegant, with great complexity, especially on the palate.

Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.

I've had a few vintages of this wine and it always delivers. This 2019 vintage is drinking much better now than it was two years ago. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Wine Spectator 93 points. Robert Parker 93 points.

A good sipping wine that will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$125.

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Cherry, plum, vanilla, bit of smoke (tobacco/bark?). Great with gamey meats and cold cuts. Great red fruits. Medium+ body, normal tannins making it very easy to drink. Just all around a great bottle. — 2 months ago

Frauenberg Riesling 2018

Wowza. Now that’s a grosses gewachs.

Nose is intensely mineral almost smoky. So dense. As it opens less dense and more floral. White flowers.

Palate is densely mineral. Gods lemon. So good. A 9.5 on open. As it opens more of a sweet elegance. Approaching Faust test levels.
