This is a great 11 year old Napa Cabernet. Nicely aged, and showing its age now with black fruits, earth, cedar, leather, chocolates, tobacco, licorice, light vanilla, peppercorn and espresso.
Full bodied and smooth, with medium plus acidity and long legs.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
Wine Enthusiasts 90 points.
Very enjoyable now, but I would have probably liked it more, a few years ago.
Needs 90 minutes to open up properly.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$58.

Tried three years ago - just too young - 100% cab, ripe black and red fruits - also smell cedar and vanilla. Tastebuds fill with flavors of blackberry, blueberry and dark chocolate - tannins are integrated and complimented by a long and surprising balanced palette - really big 😀😀😀😀😀😄
