Classy palate, marred by a flawed execution. My previous tasting with a 2015 Napa Valley CS was a standard issue, yet it was Sonoma County, a region I find challenging to appreciate. Despite the label and branding, I've come to accept the limitations of Napa Valley CS. Alas, this wine's bold black fruit, cohesive acidity, and tannins are tempered by a dominant vanilla flavor, a nuance of ethanol, and a lack of nuance. A disappointing experience.

What the web is saying

Decoy Limited Cabernet Sauvignon is praised for its rich, full-bodied profile with deep fruit flavors like blackberry and plum, complemented by vanilla and oak. While some appreciate its smooth tannins and balanced structure, others find it overly sweet or lacking complexity. The wine is noted for its affordability and suitability for casual occasions, though some feel it lacks the sophistication of higher-end options.

Voss Experts3.8

This Decoy Limited Cabernet Sauvignon offers a nose of ripe cherry, dark raspberry, and hints of cedar and forest floor. On the palate, expect layers of ripe brambly fruit, dark cherry, and blackberry with a dusting of spice, firm, ripe tannins, and an undercurrent of flinty oak. The finish is lingering and complex, with a touch of dark chocolate and vanilla. Enjoy this Cabernet Sauvignon now or cellar for a few years for optimal enjoyment.
