Sequoia Grove Cabernet - NAPA Valley


The best thing about this wine is that I got to share it on my first visit to the Lone Star State with two great friends.  The state that believes the other 49 don't exisit.  The state that thinks red, white, and blue are for Texas. 



Dark black purple in color, the nose gives an immediate aroma of dark, smoky chocolate, leading into ripe blackberries and sweet cherries with notes of clove, vanilla and cocoa powder. The palate is smooth and rich with ripe, developed tannins giving the wine a full arc in the mouth and giving flavors of blackberry and a hint of smoky, sweet oak.

Enjoy this wine at your next dinner or share it with family or friends.  You can view other selections on their website at www.sequoiagrove.com.
