Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
Oakville, Napa Valley, California, USA
Kukeri Wines Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2019, Napa Valley, California
It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Deep purple in color with a short purple rim.
Strong nose of blackberries, sweet plums, cooked cherries, cedar, leather, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, earth and black pepper.
Full bodied, smooth and bold, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, sweet cherries, cedar, chocolates, vanilla, spices, espresso, earth, cola, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This young Cabernet Sauvignon from Oakville is already delicious. Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly. Definitely worth the wait.
Elegant, rich and extracted. In your face kind of wine.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Has great potential to be a 95+ point wine.
Will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
A blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon with a touch of Petit Verdot. Aged in mostly French Oak barrels, (40% new) for 26 months. A small production of only 8 barrels.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$95.
