Avalon Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2007
Napa Valley, California, United StatesA nice improvement on last year with a much riper personality and no green notes. The nose is still peppery and fresh with bright blackberry and tobacco aromas. The palate is smooth and well-structured with ripe Christmas cake, blackberry, cassis flavours with some spicy fresh black olive notes on the finish. Solid Napa at a very attractive price.Tasted: 16 January 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
