Premiere Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2014

It’s time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a gorgeous one.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose of blackberries, sweet cherries, black currants, cedar, earth, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco, coke, graphite, light alcohol and black pepper.

Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate and fruity with blueberries, black currants, black cherries, tobacco leaf, spices, vanilla, licorice, cedar, earth, black pepper, chocolates and dark coffee.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a wonderful Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley. Showing great complexity with a smooth mouthfeel.

This 7 year old from the great 2014 vintage is drinking very nicely now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

A very enjoyable Cabernet. Delicious, rich and extracted, with a great mouthfeel.

Good right out of the bottle, and better as it opens up (1 hour).

Thank you Kim and Barry for sharing this with me.

Very tasty and good by itself or with foods, like BBQ Meats. I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.

A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon , 8% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot. Aged in (80% new) French Oak barrels for 29 months. A small production of only 445 cases. Unfortunately, their last vintage was the 2015.

14.7% alcohol by volume.

95 points.

$100.
