2005 X Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Our Napa ‘X’ Cabernet Sauvignon has been recognized all over the United States as one of Napa Valley’s great Cabernet Sauvignon values. Grapes for this wine were sourced from both the Valley floor and the mountain regions, which then were vinified in a unique manner to bring out the best in the fruit. Dominate aromas of cedar, cherry, cassis, tar, and dark forest fruits are expressed on the nose. The wine delivers excellent balance between the Cabernet Sauvignon fruit flavors, fine tannins and integrated oak. The mouth feel delivers loads of juicy blackcurrant fruit flavors with a superb finish. Cellaring of this wine will be amply rewarded.
