Lazy Susan Ranch
The Vineyardist Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Earthier on the nose with wet leaves and forest floor notes. Really enjoyed the nose and kept smelling on it.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with medium acidity and long legs.
Showing black fruits with tobacco, cedar, vanilla, licorice, spices, eucalyptus, chocolates, herbs, cocoa, earth and peppercorn.
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Showing lots of eucalyptus and licorice notes. Nicely balanced with nice complexity.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour of airtime. Gets spicier as it opens up.
This 8 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from the great 2015 vintage is gorgeous now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 10 years.
14.8% alcohol by volume.
93 points.
$180.

Pretty much same comments as the ‘16. Fantastic wine. Blue and black fruit, baking spices, minerality. Great luscious mouthfeel, silky tannins. Fantastic structure.
