Lail Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint 2017
Not only Wine of the Year, but a whopping 97 POINTS and a head-spinning price. What are you waiting for? Will be gone in hours...only about 12 cases left! If hedonistic, rich, plush, structured Cabernet from the lush and verdant Napa Valley is your bag, we certainly are crushing it today! Robin Lail, of course, is a Napa legend -- she literally grew up in a winery with the founding of Inglenook Vineyards in 1879 by her great-granduncle, the iconic Captain Gustave Niebaum, and her father, John Daniel. Napa as we know it would not be the same without these iconic people!
But, back to the deliciousness that is this Cabernet. Philippe Melka, as always, NAILS it, with tons of black/blue fruit, mocha, and beautifully harmonious texture and balance. Goes on for DAYS, it seems, and drinks like something quite a bit more expensive. Bravo, we say! $69.95, with free ground shipping on 3! While it lasts!
