Love Hammer Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Not that interesting

North Alexander Valley sourcing. Pine Mtn Vineyard-Cloverdale Peak.

Tastes like Napa Cab is Napa Cab and you know what? Sure. Here for this one.

Big mouth, fruit feels a touch over ripe for my taste, no cassis left, just prune, date, and plum. A touch over worked and over extracted. #megapurple?

Goes well with the Bison.

Really big. Bold. Dark fruits with licorice and clove on the nose. Long finish with silky baked fruit and sweet baking spices. Needs to breathe.

Soft fruit, bitter cherry notes, very well-integrated tannins, a tad high on alcohol

The maiden vintage...2013. Brandon is a savvy young winemaker and could really make some excellent wines in due course. A pleasure to taste the inaugural release

Smooth and easy. Very single dimensional and not really match the expectations on some of the other Napa 2013 releases with same price point. Yep... this one is young but I do not expect this to add too much complexity during coming years.

Little salted finish, large but nice body...
