Forman
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Soft, supple and voluptuous, the 2012 is a great choice for drinking while some of the more structured vintages rest comfortably in the cellar. Sweet mocha and spice notes wrap around the silky, seamless finish. @Severn Goodwin @Paul T- Huntington Beach

Jul 16th, 2022I’m sure this will improve, it just wasn’t particularly appealing to me today. Followed two days and day two was better. The oak needs to integrate.

Mar 11th, 2018A few days late in posting wines from the Wine Thief dinner last weekend. A nice selection of wines, most of which I’d never had before.
Guilty...I’ve never had anything from Forman before. I hear their longevity is lengthy and I can see why. This ‘12 has very delicious and focused energy all the way through. It wasn’t a fruit bomb, but it wasn’t overly tannic. Seemed right down the middle. Red, blue and black fruits alongside earthy herbs and a touch of cedar. Loved this.
