Baldacci Family Vineyards
Brenda's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Stags Leap District, Napa Valley, California, USA
Forgot to take a picture but the vintage I had was 2014. Stunning - a single barrel Cabernet, and beautiful at that. Named after the lady who doesn't like dry wine by her husband - dark, chewy and complex layers for days!

Stewed cherries, lots of earth, good viscosity. finish not as strong as I’d like which maybe means some age? Revisit: nose is like breakfast potatoes and pepper. Finish has gotten much better with solid tannin. Palette has good mushroom and earth and blackberry notes.

This may be my favorite cab that isn’t aged. There’s definitely some nostalgia as well, but this limited production cab is worth the $. Especially for an anniversary dinner

Dark berry, earth, oak, vanilla, with a hint of smoke and tobacco. Extremely smooth, silky and velvety. Worth every penny!!
