Deep purple hue to the rim with rich, black licorice front with deep berry and a coffee twinge to the lush rustic fruit underneath.
Palate--gloriously integrated on a bed of plush tannins balanced with mocha notes and more fruit.
ZD winery stands for Zero Defects and that is what you get with this beautiful Cab. It is a stunning Cabernet from a stunning vintage from the Cabernet capital of the world--NAPA, Ca. Finishes with toasty oak!
This was the second wine I opened with our standing rib roast for Christmas and it was a stellar accompaniment to the meal.
This was a gift from friends on a trip a year or two or three? ago to Napa and thought enough of us to present us with this bottle and two winery glasses which I am sad to say did not last as long as the wine. I laid it down for a couple years knowing I would be rewarded for the patience of waiting on the 07 vintage to get a little maturity under its cork. I was right.
This wine retails around $50 price point and if you happen to find one and happen to have the means and the inclination to buy it, it is exceptional and classic Napa Cabernet.
So raise a glass to a great wine, Napa Valley and good friends! Thanks M and K!!!--A Review from The Wine Cask Blog. Creative Commons: Attribution - ShareAlike 2.5 applies
