Looking for bottlings that are effusive, exuberant, sunshine-ripened and well-made? Below are 3 wines that epitomize the best of Napa Cab. These wines might be flying just below the radar but they more than hold their own against more well known brands. And the best part, you can indulge in luxury level Napa Cabernet without the $200+ bottle price tag! Set includes 1 bottle of the following wines:
2016 Familiar Air Cabernet
Made by eight time 100 point winemaker Benoit Touquette. Deep garnet-purple colored, it gives lovely black cherries, black berries, cassis and warm plums with suggestions of cigar box, lilacs and Marmite toast with a hint of garrigue
2016 Cade Cabernet
From the Plumpjack Family, one of Napa’s Elite. It has a deep purple-black color and wonderfully pure, vibrant notes of crushed blackcurrants, black cherries and baker’s chocolate with touches of Indian spices, licorice and cloves
2014 Linked Cabernet
Robert Parker, Jr. has called him a “genius” and Galloni raves his wines are “off the charts” with scores to match. Luc Morlet makes this 100% Estate Cabernet Sauvignon from vineyards perched on a hillside on the southwestern edge of Knight’s Valley.
