Notre Vue Estate Balverne Forever Wild Chalk Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 2019, Sonoma County, California
Ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked strawberries, spices, cedar, cloves, vanilla, leather, chocolates, tobacco, licorice, herbs, light alcohol, peppercorn and dark coffee.
Medium finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma County. Fruit forward, rich and elegant.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour in the decanter, when tannins show up. Really worth the wait.
Loved the chocolaty nose.
Still young and will age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
Good by itself or with food, and will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
A blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 9% Malbec and 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 18 months in oak barrels. A small production of only 504 cases.
14.3% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$48.
