This 15 year old Napa Cabernet is very enjoyable. Showing black fruits with earth notes, wet leaves, herbs, cedar, leather, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco, mocha, coke and peppercorn.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
Earthy nose and fruity on the palate. Very tasty and interesting. Showing great complexity and mouthfeel.
Wine Enthusiasts 88 points.
Needs 2 hours to open up properly and show some tannins.
I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
A blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc.
Thank you, Elvira for sharing this with me. Delicious.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

$45 (current vintage).
