Barrett & Barrett Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2016

Reminiscent of this gifted winemaker’s most lauded Cult Cabernets, this vintage is another testament to why Cabernet connoisseurs are proclaiming this to be Napa’s own First Growth wine, imminently age-worthy for 10-20+ years. The alluring bouquet includes dry cherry, currant, sage, blackberry, graphite, tobacco and dark chocolate. The palate boasts sumptuous dark fruits deftly melded together with savory backing spices, saddle leather and hints of truffles that all linger seamlessly on the majestic finish. The velvety smooth, profound tannins make this a breathtaking beauty for your cellar. This treasure will merit a 99 (or possible triple digit) point rating over the next decade.
