Ramey, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Size:12x750ml

Ramey, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Size:12x750mlMedium to deep garnet purple in color, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon gives up notions of cassis, warm plums and cedar chest with touches of tobacco, dried herbs and underbrush. The palate is medium to full bodied with plenty of ripe, juicy black fruits and savory accents framed by grainy tannins and background freshness, finishing on an earthy note.

This is a bit finer than usual thanks to the relatively dense but fine-grained tannins though I underscore that finer than usual or not

His latest releases are nothing short of spectacular
