Palmaz Vineyards
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Deep, dark and barely showing signs of bricking. Aromatically, damp forrest floor, decaying oak leaves, subtle eucalyptus tones are primary, with roasted dates and mission fig supplying the fruit. The body is medium plus, with brilliant acidity to lift the palate from its concentrated fruit to its vivacious yet fine tannins, the wine really springboards to the next level on the finish, gripping and lasting for 30 plus seconds of dark, earth-driven delight.

Wow! This stuff has hit its stride! Very very good. Give me an akuashi steak and a 45 minute decant. Drank alongside an '89 Dunn Napa and a '92 Dalla Valle. This was the winner

Well rounded, fruity, but not to bold. We think it may have been at it's peak. Great way to celebrate my house almost being sold.
