Seavey Vineyard
Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon
From mag
Double decant and pour(lots of chunky/fine sediment). A prodigious murky dark garnet color with some bricking. On the nose: very aromatic with perfumed notes of plum, dark currants, wet forest floor, touch of spicy menthol....could sniff it all night, but gotta give it a swig. Taste: lush, juicy, integrated, wine with plum/dark currants, charred earth, old leather, glycerin, pencil lead, and a spiced chocolate mocha medium plus finish. YUM! Goes great with our favorite cheese..Ossau-Iraty from France.

Big and bold. Plums, blackberries, and chocolate. Ever-so-slightly partial to the 2002 (which I had last night), but still terrific!

Sep 30th, 2020Black cherry/kirsch aromas w hint of earthiness and sage. Excellent balance w long finish. Delightful. A testament to how well the right napa cabs can age

Sep 14th, 2020This is really nice and probably on its longish peak plateau. Lots of dark brambly fruit, plum, a bit of leather, refined tannins, a bit boozy. Great w roasted meats and hearty fare.
