Villa Del Lago
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Had ‘16 vintage on 20 Dec, ‘21. Big wine with lots of structure and fruit. String and lasting finish. May benefit from a bit more bottle age...

The 2016 Villa Del Lago is absolutely another stunning creation from their prestigious 20 acre vineyard atop Pritchard Hill. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in the finest hand selection of new French oak barrels. The bouquet is powerful as well as elegant. There are hints of rose petals, jasmine, bay leaf, baking chocolate and blackberries. The mouthfeel and flavors are extraordinary. This wine exudes voluptuous texture, rich, round extremely balanced acidity and tannin. Blueberry marmalade and cocoa interweave into layers of black currants and German chocolate cake.
