Chateau Buena Vista Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

9.2

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Nose of sweet cherries, currants, blueberries, light cedar, earth, herbs, milk chocolates, tobacco leaf and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with sweet cherries, cooked plums, cedar, tobacco leaf, light earth, herbs and spices.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa valley. Elegant and easy drinking. Fruit forward and complex.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours of airtime. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

I've had a few vintages of this wine and it is very consistent.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.

A blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged in (30% new) French oak barrels for 24 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

A surprise stunner. Incredible depth of complexity that shows itself as this deep colored rich but not overbearing Pinot noir breathes.
It’s my pick for this week’s well valued - with just enough intrigue, complexity, and fancy — to keep it in your thoughts winner. — 4 years ago
