2023 VENN Cabernet Sauvignon

$50.00

This wine captures what is classic about Napa Valley Cabernet. Yes, fruit, and also: savory and aromatic qualities, freshness and tension. It’s varietally true. Here we find contemporary Napa character reaching back to take its cues from the '70s Napa greats and a gateway to what we love about Cabernet Sauvignon.

Tasting Note: Redolent with black cherries and berries, tantalizing earthy and savory notes, smooth tannins for structure. Enhanced by micro amounts of other carefully selected Bordeaux varietals, this is the Napa Cab you’ve been looking for. Great for treating yourself and gifting to fellow wine lovers. Delicious quaffable wine crafted to be enjoyed at the vintage. Drink now or cellar.
