Atlas Peak, Napa Valley, California, USA
I like this - extracted and sweet but the decade + has turned this from a dessert wine into something very drinkable - especially for under $10, and from #Napa.

Lovely Cab. Held up beautifully for over two decades. Truly remarkable for a half bottle.

Ardente Espressione Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2003. It may be small in size (375ml) but still packs a mighty punch. It’s the second time in 5 days that I am bringing it back to Napa Valley 2003 and this one was a real crowd pleaser. Profound dark fruit intensity. Black cherry. Spice. Soft smooth long tannins. A classic Napa Valley Cab! It even got Minnie & Daisy wanting to join the fun! Cheers🍷
