Oakville Winery DDR 2022, Napa Valley, California
Dark ruby in color with medium plus intensity and a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose with red and blue fruits, light wood, coffee, oregano, dark chocolates, earth and light spices.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry and fruity on the palate with cherries, plums, currants, light oak, spices, chocolates, licorice and light black pepper.
Medium length on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley. Nicely balanced and complex. Rich and fruit forward. Delicate and engaging.
Elegant and easy drinking right out of the bottle, and much better after 2 hours in the decanter. Showing a very pretty nose once it opens up.
This Single Vineyard Red Blend will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. I had the 2021 vintage a year ago and it is very consistent.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food.
A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, 10% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot.
14.1% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$50.
