Amuse Bouche Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2013

The 2013 Amuse Bouche is easily Heidi Barrett’s finest release to date. Sampled over the course of four hours, it evolves into an open-knit, sumptuous wine that is both hedonistic and sophisticated. Aromas of plum, blackberry, and cocoa are packed into a heady bouquet. Offering a sumptuous palate that delivers waves of dark fruit, spice and a core of minerality, this wine culminates in a remarkable finish (30+ seconds) across a velvety smooth texture. Decant for an hour if enjoying tonight, or allow it to evolve in the cellar for up to two decades!
