Tasting note
Far Niente's 2015 Oakville Cabernet should suggest cassis, ripe blackberry and pencil-like cedar, with plum beneath. Oakville fruit is expected to feel compact and polished, its firm tannins giving structure while acidity keeps the center of the palate fresh. The estimate places peak maturity through 2038 and the broader window through 2046. A measured finish should hold dark fruit and savory spice, then taper toward an earthy note.
