To live a life. An eleven-hundred acre ranch: remote, rugged, unspoiled, fun and free. A fantastic place on Napa Valley’s last frontier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe color is black-purple, with a brilliance around the edges that hints at brightness and nuance. The aromas are incredibly expressive, with notes of chocolate, sandalwood, and campfire mingling with fresh fruit notes of black currant and huckleberry. The texture of the wine is broad and expansive, with plenty of tannins to help the wine age, but with a polish and focus that makes the wine immediately enjoyable. All of the elements are there, and will certainly evolve in the bottle over many years, even decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCritical Acclaim\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRP97\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRobert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon MMXIII is composed of Cabernet Sauvignon (86%), Malbec (9%) and Cabernet Franc (5%). Deep garnet-purple in color, it leaps from the glass with vibrant notes of crushed blackcurrants, wild blueberries and ripe blackberries, plus hints of menthol, violets and dark chocolate. The medium to full-bodied palate is jam-packed with juicy black fruits and is wonderfully plush, featuring a lively backbone with loads of spiciness coming through on the long finish.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJS94\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJames Suckling\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBlackberries, blueberries, dried herbs, bark, ash and spice box on the nose. It’s full-bodied with plush tannins. Fleshy, compact and polished with a long, chewy finish. Try in 2023.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJD94\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJeb Dunnuck\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon sports a dense purple color as well as a ripe, sexy nose of blackcurrants, chocolate-covered blueberries, graphite, and charcoal. It's rich, full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, with a touch of firmness in its tannins that will require bottle age. I’m not sure this beauty matches the 2016, but time will tell, and it certainly has lots of character and is a beautiful wine. It might just take more time. Forget bottles for 4-5 years and drink over the following 20-25 years.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRating: 94(+)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cervantes Family Vineyard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43131712209120,"sku":"111777","price":274.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/cervantes-family-vineyard-cabernet-sauvignon_1.jpg?v=1663883836","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/cervantes-family-vineyard-cabernet-sauvignon-2018-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
