Robert Craig Winery
Diamond Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon
Diamond Mountain, Napa Valley, California, USA
Mountain fruit always brings the tannins to the front but this 2016 Robert Craig version has plenty of ripe fruit to back it up. One of the wines I suspect will outlive a lot of us sharing our favorites here. This would be stride for stride with the most expensive Napa Cabernet Sauvignon wines. It’s a real deal. #californiawinechallenge

Gift from Sean's friend. Highly rated and Sean approved. Wine was a bit too tight for me.

A complete gem, wine was big but yet elegant.

Just released. Opaque purple to rim. Toasted oak, cassis and leather with grippy dusty tannins. Dark fruit balanced with great structure. Finish goes on for a minute. Will be interesting to see the evolution of this.

Stone and dark fruit. Wound a bit tight, though this is young. Well structured wine. Is more of a Bordeaux style than many of the other Bobby Craig wines
