Tasting note

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon should offer blackcurrant, dark cherry and a cedar-like note, with savory herbs behind the ripe fruit. The 2018 Sleeping Lady Vineyard bottling is expected to feel dense and polished, its firm tannins supporting the palate while fresh acidity gives the wine a clear line. Its peak is listed through 2033 within a window to 2041; expect a long finish that gradually shifts from cassis to earthy spice.
