Plum tart, neoprene, and vanilla on the nose. Deep, rich cacao, currant, light smoky barrel notes. Beautiful.

Time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a gorgeous Napa Valley Cabernet.
Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.
Great nose of blackberries, blackcurrants, blueberries, cooked cherries, raisins, figs, vanilla, earth, tobacco, licorice, graphite, leather, chocolates, mocha, black pepper and spices.
Full-bodied and bold with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, raisins, vanilla, cola, oak, licorice, spices, coffee, pencil lead, peppercorn, leather, tobacco, earth and spices.
Long finish with round tannins and spices.
This is an awesome Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Well balanced and fruity with nice complexity and a great mouthfeel.
Good right out of the bottle and way better after 3 hours in the decanter. Good by itself or with food, like a big piece of steak.
This is a great wine from a great vintage. Could age for another 20 years.
I paired it with cheeses and light appetizers.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
93 points.
$75.
