Wolf Family "Phaedrus" Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2016
SKU
4609
Blend of two vineyards in St. Helena and Calistoga, from the Wolf family who have been making consistently good Cabernet for twenty years now. This is an intensely structured example of the voluptuous 2014 vintage, with ripe black fruits on the inviting, aromatic nose, together with an oaky smokiness, cloves, and licorice. Despite the firm tannic structure, very fresh acidity lifts the wine and stops it being too heavy. A serious but very inviting, engaging wine.
