Sporting classic notes of pencil shavings, black currants, mint, and fine dust, Louis Martini's 2012 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is like a no-frills 4-door sedan. Its structure is concentrated on the fore palate, with firm, fine tannins followed by plush blackberries, black Italian plums, figs, spice and anise, delivering Napa Cab expression at a reasonable price. There is even a dusting of cocoa powder on the exhaust pipe. Sample

Blackberry, black cherry, eucalyptus, dusty, oak chips, a little chocolate, nice finish with good acidity, medium plus tannins, solid structure. Good value for Napa Cabernet.

I probably should have brought wine but I was kinda hoping they'd have a cool old school list. They didn't. It's fruity and oaky but happily not as fruity and oaky as I thought it would be.
