Far Niente Winery
Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
Like most Napa Cabernet it is worth waiting a while before enjoying. i have little self control but luckily have access to this beauty. This is probably at its prime now. Chocolate, blackberries, blueberries and hint of a a herb garden in the summer with easy soft tannins. An Oakville classic!

Ripe black fruit. Expected more oak, tobacco, leather but it’s really a juicy fruited lovely fruit forward wine drinking very well right now. Soft silky mouthfeel. Tannins softened very nicely. Backbone still there, would guess has 3-5 yeqrs left. Nice long finish. Holding up very well and a joy to drink now.
