Signorello Cabernet Sauvignon 2012
Napa Valley, California, United StatesSlightly younger fruit and according to Ray Signorello ‘from less rocky sites’ go into the ‘Napa’ label leading to a softer structure. That said its aged in 75% new French oak barrels that tend to lends firm support to the ripe, round, rich cassis fruit. The blend of Silverado Trail fruit is 94/6 cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc. It has all the usual, tight ripe fruit held in check, restrained if you like for Napa, although in 2012 the fruit is bursting through the framework of acid and tannin. The finish is long and persistent and full of licorice, olives, tobacco and more dark fruit flavours. Serious stuff for sure.Tasted: 18 April 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $120.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
