It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.
Ruby in color with medium plus intensity.
Fruity nose with lots of fruits, cedar and chocolate notes.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.
Showing sweet cherries, currants, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates, light earth, coffee, herbs, spices and black pepper.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This 7 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa is peaking now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.
Delicious, complex and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and soft. Reminds me of a Left Bank Bordeaux.
This Single Vineyard is easy drinking and good by itself or with food. A great sipping wine.
I paired it with a Florentine steak.
A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot. Aged in French oak barrels for 20 months. A very small production of 1,500 bottles.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

A great find by my dealer. One of the best bottles I’ve ever had. — 6 days ago
An interesting Pinot Grigio from the southern section of Valdadige within the Veneto region (northern of Italy). Plentiful of white stony fruits embedded to the lime, quince and some herbs. It definitely has a bit and weight as a mouthfeel, short but sharp finish. It can be great as a sipper or a pairing grand stand with Mediterranean food and white sauce pastas. — 2 months ago
