Barbour Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2018
We have now enjoyed sampling Barbour Cabernet for over a decade now and can assure readers that this new 2018 is one of the very best yet, reminiscent of favorites from 2013 and 2010. This upcoming release boasts a plethora of tantalizing flavors such as dark fruit (black cherries, blackberry compote, plums) combined with notes of creamy oak, walnuts, semi-sweet chocolate on the memorable finish. As always, Barbour delivers supreme satisfaction now (decanting recommended) and monumental potential for long-term enjoyment thanks to velvety smooth tannins. Enjoy this beauty through 2030.
