The Never Say Never Cabernet Sauvignon from Raj Parr is sourced from the Dead Fred Vineyard in Napa Valley's Coombsville AVA, which is organically farmed by Steve Mathiasson. This traditional style Cabernet shows wonderful elegance and refinement, as it opens to inviting aromas of dark/red currants, red berry tea, zesty florals, tobacco, crushed graphite and a savory/herbal character that all take shape and emerge gracefully from the glass. On the palate this possesses a gorgeous medium-body that is impeccably balanced and well-structured with velvety tannins and wonderful acidity providing terrific freshness. It goes on to impress with its lovely bright character, displaying delicious mouth watering flavors of currants, crushed violets, fresh tobacco and zesty undertones which continue to linger all the way through the precisely focused finish. The 2016 is a beautifully crafted Cabernet that shows plenty of energy and verve in its youth, however readers should allow this beauty some time to settle down and mature, as it shows incredible promise to evolve and age exceptionally well for years to come. — 6 years ago

Blind tasted. Nose is very tight; star fruit, green apple, hints of poolside vapors. First sip is intense, acidic and tight as well, a few chews revealing structure and contained complexity. A nice buttery and ripe fruit retro really shows the quality of the wine, in conclusion. Very hard to describe - a thinker - that's for sure. Still very young - a sleeper - that's no doubt, pleasure was partly intellectual. I'd recommend to carafe for half a day or to taste the bottle over a few days. Taste around 14 degrees. Impressive !@Rajat Parr — 8 years ago

Seems to be the Burg sub-region of choice tonight. Excellent. Well balanced and a long finish. Decanted 2 hours prior. Nice delicate fruit on the nose - no hint of barn here! An excellent wine. Rajat Parr would approve. A balanced wine — 5 years ago

This was a head scratcher. Combe is a joint partnership between Stolpman and Rajat Parr. Certainly not as floral or sweet as Arnot Roberts Trousseau or even Sandlands. This was like a more herbal version of Cru Beaujolais, minus the carbonic maceration. Super tight and locked up on day 1, gaining more savory and herbal notes on day 2. Cloudy in the glass. Oregano dusted cherries and sour red fruit gummies on the nose. On day 2, it gained a salted/cured meat savory note too. Puréed strawberries with bay leaf and peppercorn on the finish. Acidity and tannins are down the middle, but this seems to be a bit more structured (ie, less gummy) than other Trousseaus I’ve had. Seems organic. Best enjoyed with a slight chill. — 6 years ago

An absolutely stunning job @Sashi Moorman & @Rajat Parr did here with their first vintage of Blooms Field. All you can want from a Pinot. Not cheap at any point but worth every penny. — 9 years ago
