Domaine Chandon
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Happily surprised with this wine, I was using it to cook with but ended up drinking the rest of the bottle over the night. Big blue and red fruit, cocoa, cigar wrapper, medium tannins, drinking very well for the price.

Mar 24th, 2016It's nice when you find the perfect wine for the season. Made from 100% Cabernet, the Domaine Chandon is displaying herbal aromas with plenty of floral notes. Cocoa, dark fruit, and some oak. The tannins are silky and the finish is long and enjoyable. This is a traditional, big Napa cab and one that's done very well.
