Vineyard 29
The Essentials 29 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
St. Helena, Napa Valley, California, USA
45 min decant (some cloudy sediment). A bewitching dark ruby red color. On the nose: red fruit, dusty soil, floral, metallic, and cocoa. Taste: creamy, juicy, rich full body wine with dark fruit, leather, minerals, oak, mocha, and a herbal black pepper semi dry long finish. YUM!

Jan 18th, 2020Friday night...time for some wings and a cab...perfect. Double decanted (plenty of chunky sediment). A sublime still dark ruby red color.

Ruby color. Sweat sock, celery seed and cheese nose. Licorice and bitter acidic flavor. Long finish of tannins with a slight bitterness.
