Perus Wine
Janeen Proprietary Red Blend
Napa Valley, California, USA
It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Dark ruby/ Inky in color with a short reddish rim.
Beautiful Fruity nose with blackberries, black currants, black plums, cherries, cedar, dark chocolates, vanilla, cola, spices, coffee and peppercorn.
Full bodied and bold, with medium plus acidity and long long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black plums, cooked black cherries, spices, chocolates, cedar, coffee, light vanilla, tobacco and peppercorn.
Medium plus on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This 5 year old Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend is drinking so beautifully now, yet so young. Very approachable at this young age.
Fruit forward and nicely balanced with a nice soft mouthfeel. Elegant and rich. Bold and extracted with nice complexity.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, and will pair nicely with a nice piece of steak.
Good right out of the bottle, but definitely better after 3 hours of airtime.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years.
Robert Parker 96 points.
Soft and smooth. Elegant and robust at the same time. Just gorgeous.
A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Merlot. A small production of less than 4,000 bottles.

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon.
Deep Inky in color with a short reddish rim.
Strong nose of blackberries, blueberries, figs, cooked cherries, cedar, leather, chocolates, tobacco leaf, licorice, vanilla, light cola, fresh herbs, coffee, Mediterranean spices and black pepper.
Full bodied, smooth and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, stewed cherries, figs, cedar, cola, earth, light vegetables, vanilla, coffee, licorice, chocolates, light alcohol, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a fantastic Cabernet Sauvignon from the house of Russell Bevan. Rich and extracted. A big wine that shows restraint and elegance.
Still very young, and needs time to open up properly (2 hours), but very tasty right out of the bottle too. As it opens up, it calms down a bit, and earth notes come in to play.
Elegant and opulent. fruit forward and tasty, with good potential to become a 95+ point wine.
This 4 year old is already delicious, and will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years.
I had the 2016 this year, and it shows good consistency. Will be nice to revisit it again in 5 years.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, and will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% merlot. A small production of only 300 cases.

Delicious right out of the bottle and better with airtime.

Time for a good Cabernet for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is gorgeous one.
Dark inky in color (almost black) with a very short purple rim.
Strong nose of cooked plums, cherry pie, raisins, dried figs, oak, black currants, licorice, vanilla, dark chocolates, cola, pencil lead, light herbs, turmeric, light alcohol, peppercorn, spices, light earth, leather and tobacco.
Full-bodied, bold and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with cooked black cherries, blackberries, plums, wood, spices, vanilla, tobacco, espresso, chocolates, earth, alcohol, graphite, cola and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine tannins, red pepper and tangy cherries.
This is a very tasty and young Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Already delicious. Rich, extracted and fruit forward. Well balanced with great complexity. Big and bold with a great mouthfeel.
Good right out of the bottle, but better after a couple of hours of decanting. It really shines after 6 hours of airtime.
Will be better in the next 5 to 15 years. This has the potential to get to 97-98 points.
A good sipping wine to share with friends and talk about. Still a little hot at the back of the throat. Smooth, spicy and elegant, yet powerful.
I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
