Caterwaul taste off, Cemetery wins. Not as fruit forward as Regusci. Great complex nose, not a typical overripe fruit bomb.
Jeb 💯 review as follows
Pure perfection in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Cemetery Vineyard comes from a tiny, 3.5-acre vineyard located between Las Piedras and Capella. It reminds me of a great vintage of Haut-Brion with its smoked earth, tobacco leaf, iron, black olive, and darker, earthy fruits. Full-bodied on the palate, it's a wine that builds slowly with time in the glass and has a layered, multi-dimensional texture, incredible tannins, a great mid-palate, and a finish that won't quit.
