NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This full-bodied Charles Krug Family Generations Reserve is a classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.On the nose, aromas of ripe red and dark fruit, cassis, and jammy blackberry jam mingle with sweet baking spices and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full and silky, with a generous, structured mid-palate, and a long, complex finish. Concentrated flavors of blackberry, dark cherry, and cedar linger with hints of sweet tobacco, mocha, and a hint of earthiness. A classic and elegant wine with a powerful yet well-balanced structure. Enjoy now or cellar for the next 10 years.
