Vine Cliff Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2004
Cabernet Sauvignon
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
Nestled into a hidden canyon in the prestigious Oakville appellation, Vine Cliff Winery boasts one of the most desirable locations in the
Napa Valley. The surrounding hillsides above the Silverado Trail are home to the stunning vineyards that produce the grapes for rich,
full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignons.
The aroma has classic Cabernet fruits of blackberry, currant, sweet cherry, plum, and fresh red raspberry jam. The Cabernet Franc adds
bright aromatic and floral notes which complement nicely the oak spice notes of vanilla, chocolate, caramel, and cedar.
The palate is flavorful with a core of sweet boysenberry, blackberry, and juicy raspberry fruits, accented with vanilla, cedar, and
chocolate oak flavors. The mouth feel is smooth and rich with a luscious texture that builds with round supple refined tannins lingering
on the finish.
