V. Sattui Winery
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Birth year bottle for me. Took an hour or so to blow off the old bottle funk. Forest floor and dried red berries. On the downslope, but elegant and enjoyable in its old age.

Sep 18th, 2017Loved it. Delish. Complex and well balanced. Fruity presence without really being forward. Full flavor and wonderfully lingering. Imminently drinkable. Drank the 2012 in 2016.
