Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Inky in color with a short purple rim.

Fruity nose of black plums, black currants, oak, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates, coffee and black pepper.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked plums, cedar, tobacco leaf, light earth, herbs, spices and light vanilla.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Rich and fruit forward. Elegant and nicely balanced. Tangy and interesting.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after a couple of hours in the decanter.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and would pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$100.

Pink Wine Garnacha Rosé Blend

73/13/7/5/2 blend of Garnacha, Syrah, Monastrell, Graciano and Piquepoul Blanc. Pink to red rose petal in color (it’s not just the artwork) light cherry aroma, Good tangerine-cherry-white pepper flavor consistent with two main red varietals here. Not quite bone dry but close. Nice acidity and mineral finish. Muted flavors overall but a fine wine for sipping on a hot day. Paired so well with a Bianco Verde pizza al fresco last week at Pizzeria Bianco that I went out and bought a bottle. — 4 years ago

Toscano Sangiovese Blend 2016

Spicy cherry and raspberry. Smoked meats, tar, leather but still with punchy fruit. Not quite at the level of the ‘13 El Campo but still nice. — 4 years ago
