Description
Fresh violets, blueberry, and black plum aromas lead to a plush entry and round mouth-coating mid-palate with a bright acid backbone and velvety textured tannins throughout. Sassafrass and raspberry. Stewed strawberries, coastal sage, all spice. Saturday morning farmer’s market. Hints of perfume, vanilla, and cardamom compliment the polished, fruit-focused flavor profile and end with a mouth watering, lingering finish.
Walking up to the roulette table, putting a stack on red and not ever looking the croupier in the eye… winner winner chicken dinner. How do you like me now?

These wines are made by Keith Emerson at the Vineyard 29 winemaking facility. Looking first at the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley, this beauty is 100% varietal and was brought up in 40% new French oak. It offers a classic feel in its cassis and candied cherry fruits and has complex floral and fruitcake notes, medium to full body, and considerable elegance and purity as well as silky tannins. Its subtle, understated style grows on you with time in the glass, and it’s ideal for drinking over the coming 10-15 years. –Jeb Dunnuck
