NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This 1881 Napa Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold, robust red that displays an abundance of ripe, dark fruit aromas on the nose.On the palate, notes of black cherry, tobacco, and mocha mingle with subtle hints of vanilla, baking spices, and oak. The full-bodied structure and velvety tannins make this a perfect match for hearty, flavorful dishes. Enjoy now or cellar for up to 10 years.
