Seven highly touted Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon's not to be missed! CRU by Vineyard 29 '10 "Napa Valley" Cabernet Sauvignon "93" Robert Parker $44.95 From the Wine Advocate: One of the very best values in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2010
Cabernet Sauvignon Cru bursts from the glass with dark red cherries,
plums and tobacco. The 2010 is totally gorgeous from start to finish.
There is more than pure vibrancy and freshness to support the generous,
opulent fruit in this striking, beautifully delineated Cabernet
Sauvignon. Winemaker Keith Emerson crafts the Cru bottling from a
variety of vineyards across Napa Valley. Anticipated maturity:
2013-2022.

KEENAN '09 "Napa Valley" Cabernet Sauvignon "93" Robert Parker $39.95 From the Wine Advocate: Keenan’s 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the highlights in this
portfolio. Rich and voluptuous, it totally saturates the palate from
start to finish. Dark fruit, violets, spices and licorice all flesh out
in this large-scaled, dramatic Cabernet Sauvignon. Everything simply
works. The 2009 is a great wine. Even better, it is extremely fairly
priced considering the quality of what is in the bottle. Readers will
have a hard time keeping their hands off this jewel of a wine. I imagine
another few years of bottle age will only help the 2009 develop even
more complexity. In this vintage the Cabernet Sauvignon is 73% from
Spring Mountain and 27% from Pope Valley. Anticipated maturity:
2014-2024.
SNOWDEN '10 "Napa Valley" THE RANCH Cabernet Sauvignon "92" Robert Parker $35.95 From the Wine Advocate: Snowden’s 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon The Ranch is one of the bigger,
juicier wines readers will come across in this vintage. Mocha,
chocolate, spices, plums and black cherries seem to literally jump from
the glass. Merlot plays a pretty important role in the 2010, which gives
the wine much of its roundness and early accessibility. Round,
expressive and racy, the 2010 Ranch is a terrific effort from Snowden.
Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.

price anywhere. Only 12 cases left
at our amazing price.
From the Wine Advocate: The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Affinity bursts from the glass with an
exciting array of dark red berries, flowers, licorice and sweet spices.
Floral notes reappear on the finish, adding brightness and lift. This
gorgeous, mid-weight Cabernet Sauvignon should continue to drink
beautifully for at least a handful of years. In 2009 the blend is 86%
Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 2% Malbec and 1%
Cabernet Franc. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017.
FREEMARK ABBEY '09 "Napa Valley" Cabernet Sauvignon "92" Robert Parker $29.95 From the Wine Advocate: A powerful, direct wine, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon hits the palate
with a blast of dark cherries, plums, violets and spice box. The tannins
remain quite firm, so another few years of cellaring is probably a good
idea. I very much like the sense of energy and direction, especially on
the finish. The 2009 is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 7% Petit
Verdot, 3% Malbec and 2% Cabernet Franc, from parcels in Stage Coach,
Potelle, Veeder Peak, Bosche and Sycamore.
TITUS '09 "Napa Valley" Cabernet Sauvignon "91" Wine Spectator $32.95 One of our best selling Cabernet Sauvignon's this past holiday season. A
beautiful wine that is drinking great now but will age gracefully over
the next 5 to 8 years. From Wine Spectator: Pure, rich, dense and structured, with a deep core of dark berry, black
licorice, espresso and dried herb. Gains depth and holds focus. Long on
the finish.
 FRANK FAMILY '09 "Napa Valley" Cabernet Sauvignon "90" Robert Parker $35.95 From the Wine Advocate: Juicy red berries, crushed flowers, cloves and a hint of French oak all
come together nicely in the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon. A gracious,
mid-weight wine, the 2009 should drink well pretty much upon release.
Sweet floral notes reappear to frame the feminine, expressive finish. Place your
orders online or see you very soon! (858) 586-WINE (9463) |
