Tasting notes
The Galerie wines are now made by Gianna Kelly. The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Pleinair has a bright, juicy nose of blueberries, cassis, violets, and spring flowers as well as a rather firm, streamlined style on the palate. It has some grippy tannins, so give it a year or two.

The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Pleinair is racy, silky and super-expressive. Sweet floral and spice notes give the 2017 pretty aromatic top notes and brightness. This is a very solid value in the world of Napa Valley Cabernet, marked by plush red fruit and floral notes.
The 2017 Pleinair Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a very deep garnet-purple color and bursts from the glass with crushed blueberries, black cherry compote and boysenberries with touches of raisin cake, Chinese five spice and potpourri. Full-bodied, rich and spicy in the mouth, it has lovely freshness and a lovely bit of chew texturing the finish. 810 cases produced.
