Post & Beam Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Well rounded Cab, on the lighter side. Makes for easy drinking and pairs well with dinner.

From the Far Niente winery. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits with floral spice and oaky notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry, blackberry and red plum with licorice, vanilla, leather and espresso. Tannins are fine, a bit tight, long finish ending with fruit, toasty cedar and earthy spice. Enjoyable now but a few years will reward. Pair this with a fillet mignon with a Cabernet sauce.

Wow, this is interesting coming from the illustrious Far Niente. Nice round, chewy, cab. Approachble, 40 bucks. Quite the sweet spot. I will rebuy and put it through my full process. Alc comes across a bit hot. But otherwise, very good.

Jan 21st, 202412/2023. Good medium bodied Cab. Expected more but no problem. Nice color and nice on the palate. Good finish with a touch of spice at the end. Needs to breathe.
Paired well with the Cioppino served at Di Vino Rosso.

A little dryer than I usually drink. But I liked it. It’s drinkable and nice.
