2018 | Davis Estates | Cabernet Sauvignon

Looking into the glass you are captivated by the dark ruby color, edged with a bright ring of purple, in the 2018 Napa Valley Cabernet. Nuanced aromas of fig, Luxardo cherry, black currant & lavender are accompanied by notes of toasty oak with every swirl. Each sip reveals complex layers of dark fruit, tobacco, cranberry and anise. The tannins are delicate and lingering, carrying flavors of chocolate and orange rind for a lengthy finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: This densely layered, well concentrated wine emphasizes cocoa, dark chocolate and dried blueberry flavors that are firmly wrapped in fine-grained tannins. Expect it to mellow and gain more complexity with time. Best from 2028.

• James Suckling: Aromas of blackcurrants, tobacco leaf and graphite. Full-bodied with fine, silky tannins. Opulent and rounded on the palate with very good intensity and balance. Steady and driven with depth and complexity from the array of black fruit and spices.
