2018 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2018 vintage brought us a brighter and more floral expression and one which is immediately drinkable and utterly delicious. Where the 2017 vintage was more blue and black fruit-driven, this vintage is much more high toned and red. More beauty than beast with nose of meadow flowers and red berry fruit, it offers lush, pretty flavors of red currant, cherry, pomegranate, black raspberry and allspice. An elegant and sensual wine that promises wonderful aging potential and is ready to enjoy when you are.
Fermented in stainless steel, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Oak Knoll is then aged for 18 months in French oak, 65% new. 280 cases produced.
93 pts WWC, 92 pts Decanter, who noted the 2018 Napa Cabernet vintage as "in an echelon with the finest of the past two decades.” 91 pts James Suckling
