2018 Neyers Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Winemaker Notes:Neyer's Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine has a bright ruby hue with aromas of wild cherries, chocolate and fresh tobacco leaf. The finished wine is remarkable for its flavor and complexity, and the wine looks to be one that will improve for many years. Planted in 1992 by David Abreu, this fruit is located on ground higher than 600 feet on rocky land rich with basalt. This vineyard is one of the rare 10% in Napa Valley capable of producing great Cabernet Sauvignon and is planted around the Neyers Ranch.

This wine pairs well with grilled steak or creamy pastas.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Very brooding with a dark purple color. Some raw olives, charcoal, roasted herbs, blackberries, cassis and cocoa powder on the nose. The full-bodied palate is charged with chewy tannins that surrounds the center-palate fruit. Still needs some time to soften more."


Wine Spectator - "Direct and frankly ripe, with boysenberry and mulberry pâte de fruit notes bursting forth, laced with singed apple wood and licorice notes along the way. Juicy, bramble-tinged finish."
