Reserve Elway's Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
This is a nice and easy drinking Napa Cabernet. Showing black fruits with oak, licorice, spices, vanilla, tobacco, light earth, chocolates, coffee and peppercorn.
Fruit forward with medium acidity.
Fruity on the palate with nice finish and fine grained tannins. Spicy and interesting.
Still young and would need a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already enjoyable even by itself.
I paired it with light appetizers.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$65.

Deep ruby/ purple in color with a short reddish rim.
Fruity nose of blueberries, cherries, black plums, light oak, vanilla, licorice, coffee, chocolates, spices and black pepper.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black cherries, wood, spices, light vanilla, tobacco, light vegetables, dark chocolates, light earth and peppercorn.
Medium plus in finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a tasty, but young Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Fruit forward and easy drinking.
Smooth and elegant. Spicy and entertaining. Good right out of the bottle, and better with some airtime.
Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years. Has the potential to be a 93+ point wine in 5 years.
Good by itself as a sipping wine. A good porch wine too. Already Very approachable, tangy and interesting.
A nice collaboration with Robert Mondavi Jr. A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petite Sirah and 1% Petite Verdot. Aged for 18 months in French oak (60% new).
I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
