Vineyard 29 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 2005
95 points! Robert Parker
P 12,000 / bottle
Intensely hued in color, the 2005 vintage is deeply purple with garnet hued highlights. A slightly higher acidity and lower pH further add brightness and depth. On the nose, aromas of violets hint at the elegance of this wine while rich red fruits, chocolate and smoke tell of its power. Just as stunning on the palate, fresh plums and dried strawberries intermix with tobacco, black pepper and black licorice in this multi-dimensional wine
The 2005 displays the classic elegance of the Grace Clone cabernet from Vineyard 29’s distinctive site. This elegance and a seductive lushness will tempt you drink this wine now. Do so blissfully or allow this beauty to further develop for 15 or more years.
