James Suckling Review
Rated 91
Aromas of blackcurrants and cherries with spicy herbs, dried tomato leaf, cedar and crushed stones. Medium- to full-bodied with firm, velvety tannins and polished texture. Smooth and lean with a flavorful finish. Drink or hold.
Wine Tasting Notes
With this Markham Napa Cabernet, the jammy character of Yountville Ranch Cabernet takes center stage, rounded out by Rockerbox Vineyard's black currant tones and the beautiful aromatics of Hopper House fruit. Look for aromas of sweet hay, cherry, graphite and baking spices leading to a lush, juicy palate of ripe, round blackberry jam and cherry flavors with chewy tannins on a long finish. Built to age, but easy to enjoy this dark gem if your idea of dinner involves slow-roasted meats served on a bed of caramelized veggies or mushrooms.
86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 4% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc
Alcohol 14.8%
