#AgedWineTuesday

Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Beautiful nose and very complex.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate and fruit forward with nice complexity.

Showing blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, dark chocolates, toast, cedar, light vanilla, spices, coffee, licorice, light earth, black tea and black pepper.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This 18 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is drinking beautifully now. Elegant and rich. Complex and fruit forward.

Drinking at its peak, and will continue to do so in the next 5 to 7 years. The high alcohol is well integrated by now.

Needed 2 hours to open up properly, and it's worth the wait, so be patient.

This Single Vineyard Cabernet is a wonderful sipping wine, that will also pair nicely with food.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in all new French oak barrels for 24 months. A tiny production of 1,000 bottles.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

94 points.

KNA Wines Sanna Sauvignon Blanc 2022, Napa Valley, California

light lemon in color with a green hue.

Strong nose of limes, lemons, tropical fruits, green apples, light grapefruits, spices, minerals and light earth.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with green apples, grapefruits, herbs, limes, lemons, light earth and spices.

Tangy finish with limes and bitter herbs.

This is a very tasty Sauvignon Blanc from Napa Valley. Showing nice complexity. Crisp and refreshing.

Better after 90 minutes of airtime, and better when not too cold.

Would be nice to revisit it in a year or two and see how it evolves.

Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food. I paired it with fatty hard cheeses. Would pair beautifully with fresh oysters.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.
