The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is another good value that offers plenty of Cabernet ripe dark currant fruits as well as spice, cedar, and leafy herbs notes. It's medium-bodied, nicely textured, and easy-drinking.

Score 88/100 · Drink 2022-2030, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2021

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is a tasty, straightforward offering to drink now and over the next handful of years. Dark fruit, scorched earth, licorice, spice and leather flavors give the 2018 its distinctly brooding personality. I don't think time will polish the angular contours here, so I would not push my luck with regards to aging.

Blackcurrant, clove, walnut and dried lavender on the nose. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins. Structured and precise with dark berries and cocoa on the finish. Try from 2021.
