It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.

Very fruity on the nose with black currants, blackberries, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, cola, Indian spices, pencil lead, light alcohol and black pepper.

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

Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black plums, ripe cherries, spices, cedar, licorice, peppercorn, chocolates, vanilla, espresso, cola and light herbs.

Long finish with fine grained tannins, spices and cherries.

This delicious 5-year-old Napa Cabernet is drinking very nicely now. Nicely balanced with good structure. Complex and entertaining. Rich and elegant.

This Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is very approachable right out of the bottle, and better after 90 minutes of airtime. Gets more complex as it opens up.

The nose really blossoms after 3 hours, with lots of cedar, chocolate and cola notes.

Will continue to age nicely over the next 10 years. Would be nice to visit it again in 5 years. Has good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Really good by itself as a sipping wine, and good with food too. I paired it with meats, crackers and cheeses. Paired very nicely with the French Blue cheese.

A blend of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot. Aged for 19 months in (55% new) French Oak barrels. Only 7,200 bottles made.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Pale lemon in color with a golden hue.

Strong nose of limes, grapefruits, gooseberries, light tropical fruits, green apples, minerals and light grass.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with limes, light tangerines, lemons, grapefruits, light apples, light earth, herbs, minerals and a touch of tropical fruits.

Long finish with limes and light almonds.

This is a delicious Sauvignon Blanc From Napa Valley. Rich and Refreshing. Fruit forward, elegant and smooth.

Nicely balanced, and neither bitter nor tart. A great sipping wine.

Easy drinking and would also pair nicely with oysters.

100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes from Yountville, were aged for 3 months in mostly stainless steel vats, and some in concrete egg and used French oak.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

Deep purple with a nose of olive , lilac, raisin, tomato leaf, cigar box, and a hint of tar and vanilla. Very interesting aroma on this one. Good full-bodied mouthfeel with a hint of fruit on the front, but moves quickly into the flavors noted on the nose. A brooding wine with depth and earthiness. This is an interesting wine and fits the abstract series from Goosecross from which it comes. Definitely will be picking up more of this in the future. — 4 years ago

Deep purple in color with a nose of blackberries and earth. Very well balanced wine. I was waiting for one aspect to take over, but it stayed true throughout the finish. Full-bodied with nice fruit, acidity, and tannin. I tasted off the Coravin right out of the bottle, but this one would probably open up a good bit more with a decant. Very nice wine! — 4 years ago
