Napa Cabernet Sauvignon
Intense, dark ruby red core with narrow rim.
Expressive aromas, intense, youthful, plums, smoky bacon, vanilla, black currants/cassis, dark chocolate and a herbal note reminding of lavender.
Dry, full bodied and lucious in the mouth. Medium+ level of tannins, very smooth and silky. Together with a nice, medium+ level of acidity makes up a velvety structure. Concentrated fruit, black currants, blueberries, red bell peppers, sweet vanilla from oak and dark chocolate. Long length and an excellent finish with a little warmth from alcohol. Well balanced wine, but oak still need some time to integrate fully, and it will probably gain more complexity with age. Majestetic Napa Cabernet.
