Wine Review: This opaque and very dark ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Davis Estates opens with a black currant and cigar box bouquet with hints of red plum, tobacco leaf, and wet clay. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, smooth, and polished. The flavor profile is a black cherry and mocha blend with notes of bacon and stone dust. We also detected hints of oak, blueberry, and a touch of black licorice. The finish is very dry, and its flavors, acidity, and tannins build-up and stick around for quite a while. The Tasting Panel would decant this Cab for a while before pairing it with a well-marbled ribeye or Roy’s rib roast. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Our 2021 Napa Valley Cabernet is a classic Cabernet Sauvignon experience. A visual treat, shining with deep garnet and a sparkling ruby edge. Aromas of blackberry mingle with dried herbs and wet earth to enchant your senses. On the palate flavors of bright red fruit are beautifully balanced with elegantly smooth tannins. This wine is the perfect pairing for a casual weeknight or a long-awaited celebration.
