92+ The Wine Advocate - Robert Parker
2018 Cabernet SauvignonNapa Valley
Tasting Notes -
The 2018 Cabernet showcases a signature black fruit profile. Black raspberry and black cherry are perfectly layered with floral and dark spice notes. These notes come from the vineyard’s cooler climate and rocky soil.
The wine's graceful structure makes it particularly food friendly. We suggest pairing with braised meat dishes, filet mignon, or lamb. For a lighter pairing, we suggest seafood such as swordfish or tuna.
