2016 Yao Ming Family Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

WA97 Containing a 3% splash of Petit Verdot, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Yao Ming Family Reserve is deep garnet-purple colored and spills seductively out of the glass with compelling crème de cassis, plum preserves and baked cherries scents plus hints of mocha, menthol, underbrush and cedar chest. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated in the mouth, the palate delivers layer after layer of vibrant black fruit preserves, framed by firm yet velvety tannins and tons of freshness, finishing very long.
