Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Spice box. Great balance and mouthfeel. A nice Napa offering at an approachable price point.

Dark ruby coloration. Some transparency. On the nose, dark cherry, currants and leather. On the palate, cherry, oak, and vanilla. Medium strong tannins.

2018, a really good balanced drink, hits the spot for what you want in a nice Cab. Buy again!!!

2015. “Comfort wine.” I love this. Big dark fruit, soft and smooth, a little spice. No flaws or reservations.

Fun night celebrating a dear friend’s birthday at Lucio’s BYOB over dinner. Everyone brought their own bottles to share with the group that was gathered.

En mag. My contribution for the night and I must say, this was killin’ it. After being opened for over an hour and after having spent some time in the glass it was singing. Eucalyptus, plums, blackberries, blackberry cobbler, all-spice, and espresso. Everything about this presented well.

Elegant wine. Very nice, subtle dark fruit upfront with cedar and mild earthy flavors. Velvety finish with nice tannins. Really enjoyed this wine.

At Total Wine tasting 1/19 - big, but not worth the $50 price tag

Beautiful wine. Big but velvety smooth. Very drinkable.

Nice depth. Blackberry, balanced. Starting tonight’s “ladder up” from here with a Lou Malnati’s sausage pie.
