Pestoni Family
Three Tears Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Ruby in color with medium plus intensity.
Fruity nose with lots of fruits, cedar and chocolate notes.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Showing sweet cherries, currants, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates, light earth, coffee, herbs, spices and black pepper.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This 7 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa is peaking now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.
Delicious, complex and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and soft. Reminds me of a Left Bank Bordeaux.
This Single Vineyard is easy drinking and good by itself or with food. A great sipping wine.
I paired it with a Florentine steak.
A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot. Aged in French oak barrels for 20 months. A very small production of 1,500 bottles.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$125.

Medium plus in body and elegant with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, blueberries, oak, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, light earth and coffee.
Nice length on the finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This Single Vineyard Napa Bordeaux blend is just delicious.
Fruit forward with lots of earthy notes, that make it interesting. Not your typical Napa Cabernet.
This 5 year old is still young, but already delicious, even by itself.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 10 years.
I had it two and a half years ago, and it is drinking so much better now. A nice wine to sip on by the porch.

It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a nice one from Napa Valley.
Deep purple in color with a wide purplish rim.
Fruity nose of blueberries, black plums, cedar, vanilla, spices, licorice, chocolates, violets, light earth, tobacco and black pepper.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with black currants, blueberries, cherries, licorice, oak, vanilla, spices, coffee, vegetables, earth, chocolates, herbs, tobacco and peppercorn.
Medium plus in finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a spicy Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Gentle and easy to drink. Well balanced with mild complexity. Lighter than I expected and not the typical in your face kind of Napa Cabernet.
Good right out of the bottle and good by itself or with food. This 3 year old is already drinking very nicely, and would be nice to revisit in 5 years. Engaging and tasty.
A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot. Aged in French oak barrels for 20 months. A very small production of only 124 cases.
