Covert Estate
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
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.
