Tasting notes
The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a tasty red to drink now and over the next handful of years. Super-ripe dark cherry, tobacco, spice, cedar and mocha are nicely dialed up in this mid-weight flashy Napa Valley Cabernet. This is a pretty exuberant wine for Ramey, but it all comes together very well, especially with air, something these wines always benefit from.

The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is blended with 10% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc. It has a deep ruby color and fragrance of Morello cherries, chocolate, mushrooms, savory herbs and pipe tobacco. The full-bodied palate is powdery and plush with soft, alluring streaks of herbal character and a long, layered finish. It could still use a few years in bottle.
