Trilogy Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Napa Valley, California, USA
Excellent. Brings back memories of my first trip to Napa… FS was my very first tasting. Trilogy came along for the ride. Still love this.

This is a delicious Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley. Good right out of the bottle and better with airtime.
Full bodied and bold, with medium acidity and long legs.
Showing black fruits with cedar, vanilla, leather, spices, earth, chocolates, tobacco, peppercorn, coffee and mocha.
Long finish with round tannins and cherries.
Showing nice complexity with a soft mouthfeel.
Good by itself or with food. A good sipping wine that will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 10 years.
14.2% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$85.

Oct 27th, 2021It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Inky in color with a short reddish rim.
Fruity nose with black currants, black plums, blueberries, ripe cherries, light cedar, light earth, vanilla, black pepper, chocolates, coffee and pencil lead.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long skinny legs.
Dry on the palate with plums, black currants, coffee, oak, vanilla, vegetables, black pepper, spices, chocolates, dark coffee, herbs, tobacco leaf, leather and earth.
Medium on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very nice Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Napa Valley. Still young and will benefit from some bottle aging. Has good potential to become a really nice wine.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 90 minutes of airtime. Really nice nose once it opens up.
Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years, however, already drinking nicely and showing nice complexity.
The Malbec seems very dominant at the moment. Spicy and tangy. Fruit forward and tasty.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with cheeses and olives.
A blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot and 8% Malbec. Aged in mostly French oak barrels for 18 months.
14.2% alcohol by volume.
