Corison
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Solid Napa cab, with violet nose. Graphite, currant, black cherry, espresso, and blackberry, remarkable, chewy tannins, and structure. Details lacking as it was the last wine and accompanied cherry pie. But made a great impression. .

2019 vintage. PNP. Sultry and sexy. Light-medium/medium bod. The Corison Cabernets occupy a deliciously distinctive, Napa niche. This vintage is no less than that standard. Slightly less “busy” than the 2018, the 2019 continues to bring the must-have goods to market. Herbs, earth, woods, cassis, anise, kapow and blammo all easily found within. When you come across a jaded Napa Cab person (raises both hands), this baddy restores the faith. 01.20.25.

Jan 21st, 2025Very enjoyable. Lots of red, blue and slightly dark fruits, followed by lavender, toasted oak and cigar box (that is very well integrated) and a notable amount of Bordeaux-like graphite. Intensity is med (+) on the nose and palate, medium bodied with a slightly inky weight, and only medium alcohol (impressive). The finish is long and complex. .
