Snowden
Brothers Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruits, cigar box and cedar scents. On the palate flavors of black cherry, plum and currants with cacao, floral and oaky notes. Fine dusty tannins, long finish ending with fruit, floral, oak and earthy mineral character. Very Nice! Good now.

Not quite built to go head-to-head with the best Napa Cabs, but incredible value for <$100 and I expect the still present oak should be fully integrated in another year or 2. Fantastic purity of dark red fruit, rooting for the light acidity to hang in for a while.

93-96 rang for upside here. Great, but needs more time. The Ranch is what to drink now from Snowden of the 2018s. Put these away for a few more years and they should be the better of the two. Classy cab, elegant and a little closed today, but all the potential is there. Currants, cherries, cassis, this leans to classic Napa ala 70s-8os with more clarity, precision and acidity. Tannin is youthful and structured. Oak is there but perfectly integrated, frames the whole package on the nose and the palate.

Tasted with the Judge. This was wine of the flight, good place as far as tannin and added tertiary elements. 🤠⚖️🍷
