(2/2021) Here's a fan favorite from an elite Napa Valley producer that is sumptuous, delicious and eager to please. A blend of all five Bordeaux varieties, led off by Cabernet Sauvignon, this bigm, friendly red delivers a rich, velvety experience with light and supple tannins. A nose of blueberry, vanilla bean, black cherry, toasted marshmallow and bacon coasts into an energetic palate featuring notes of boysenberry, dark chocolate, sage, plum and cinnamon. Lots of classic Napa flavors for an honest price. Pair with filet or enjoy it all by itself!
