Dry Creek Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
My go to Sonoma Cab Sauv. Still stunning and makes any first meeting fantastic. Rich complex fruit with earth undertones and and herbaceous core. Always a crowd pleaser at a very good price/quality ratio. Go for a new discovery!

Nov 8th, 20162016 is a fresh, ripe savory Cab with hints of oak. Somehow I must save a bottle to mature? Excellent as always!

Feb 4th, 2017Anniversary year 1992 wine- 25 years and still going strong. The cork broke, but it still showed some youth. Yes, cigar box, but some fruit as well. Nice long finish.

Jan 6th, 2017Blackberry, pomegranate & cedar nose. Vibrant deep purple color on this very youthful wine. This 2013 Cab has nice medium tannins, full body with a smooth finish. #arafanelli #drycreekvalley #healdsburg #cabernetsauvignon

Dec 3rd, 2016Great wine. Nice and easy - not heavy like a lot of zins.
