Lovely cab sauv - delicious- just the way I like it - love to smile

Mar 28th, 2020I am certain that my posse will smoke me tonight as they are at napa valley premiere auction so @David L @Joe Lucca and @ADAM STROMFELD go ahead do so - so damn jealous
I decided to pull this as I know it delivered in the past on other vintages so here we go
This is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon with 950 Cases produced
This has so many things it is hard to put them all in but taste vanilla, cherries with notes of toasty oak, espresso and a chocolate twist.
This baby has structure and is a true mid-palate cab with fine tannins with a looooong finish
This is essence of Big Bold and Beautiful and a really true statement of a Napa cab with a great winemaker at the helm as I feel Robert Foley is in my opinion am underrated wine maker
The smell contains aromas of sweet blackberries, cassis, forest floor, and spring flowers- this baby jumps from the glass to show you what a full-bodied, opulent, structured wine should be - textured, layered mouthfeel displays absolutely no burn - it is so ready to drink so enjoy and mindful that this might have another 5 years left
All smiles tonight

Final wine - it is my WOTN - just one slip and I know why I have been saving these - I listen to my delectable gang when you say give these babies time - and "time in a bottle" they have - big bold beautiful on the first sip - man am I enjoying some good wine
Deep deep deep purple red color with intoxicating dark fruits mixed with cassis leather and cocoa create a smell that reminds me of the smiles you get when you smell that first much needed cup of freshly brewed coffee in the morning
The taste completes me - totally completes me - that is a slight exaggeration but it was funny - but it is really good - and "she got legs" in terms of finish
Smiling is what makes the world go around and creates positivity - and this wine definitely helps!

Ok this time I really mean it WOTN. Blueberry pie delight with an oaky but not too oaky finish.

After a day of drinking huge bombs in Paso this was not the right choice. Big!!! Young. Good tannins. Will revisit in 24 hours. Cherry cola. Still over the top.
