Stewart Cellars
Nomad Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.
Full bodied and bold with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, cedar, earth, vanilla, espresso, cola, light herbs, chocolates, tobacco, spices and peppercorn.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon from Beckstoffer Vineyard. Rich, yet elegant with nice complexity. Extracted and fruit forward.
Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Spicy and interesting.
This 9-year-old from the great 2014 vintage in Napa is drinking beautifully now.
Wine Enthusiasts 94 points.
This Single Vineyard is good right out of the bottle, and even better after 3 hours of airtime. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
I've had the 2009 a couple of years ago and loved it as well. Showing great consistency.
Good by itself or with food. Will pair nicely with BBQ Meats.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
94 points.
$135.

Here is a delicious wine for #AgedWineTuesday.
Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim. Not showing age at all.
Fruity nose of blackberries, sweet plums, cooked cherries, cedar, vanilla, spices, espresso, cola, licorice, light alcohol, chocolates, mocha, peppercorn, leather and tobacco. A nose to smell on for days.
Full bodied with medium acidity, bold and rich with long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, raisins, vanilla, cedar, licorice, cloves, herbs, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, peppercorn, earth, cola and pencil lead.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cranberries.
This is a great Cabernet sauvignon from Napa Valley. Showing great complexity and mouthfeel. Well balanced and fruity, with a spicy finish.
Still young and needs 5 years of bottle time, but this 11 year old is drinking very nicely now.
Gorgeous nose and very tasty on the palate. A great Cabernet to drink by the porch with good friends.
Thank you Scott for sharing this with me.

Needs a few hours to open up properly. Only after 4 hours, tannins came in, so please be patient.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with a nice piece of steak.
A small production of only 389 cases.
