Scarlett Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Reserve 2018
Truly superb and a tremendous crowd-pleaser (thriller actually!). An array of awe-inspiring flavors launch forth to combine for a velvety rich Cabernet that dazzles with statuesque proportions of creamy vanilla, graham cracker, mocha, cassis, and dark fruit. A luxuriously smooth texture builds up to a majestic crescendo of black currant, dark chocolate and classic grainy tannins we love from the finest new 2018 Napa Cabernet. Enjoy this wonderfully expressive Cabernet now (decant prior to 2023) or anytime over the next 5 – 7 years. Bravo.
