Atlas Peak Cabernet Sauvignon
Atlas Peak, Napa Valley, California, USA
Had never had this label before but it was delicious. Creamy, dark fruit and it stayed in the zone all night.

Smooth and polished. But maybe a bit much oak for my taste.

Mar 4th, 2018I kind of wish I could say this was some over-hyped grape jelly juice...BUT damn if this isn’t like drinking the Batmobile. Sleek and dangerous and just coursing with power and energy. Just so much yes here, so so much.

Sep 16th, 2017Extremely powerful. As a 2013 it was way too young to be opened. There is great promise when it gets a few more years to age. Super rich black fruit, currant and chocolate. Once the immediate oak influences integrate it should be amazing.

Jan 1st, 2017well the second wine is my fav winemaker - Heidi B - - decanted two hours - great night with a great steak - oh man a blessed night - wow - Very rich and opulent and jammy with blackberries, cherries and raspberries. The finish has extraordinarily long legs - forever - all while the tannins are firm but very enjoyable- really big SMILES!!!!!!!
