Buccella Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2012
This is a great example of a classic Napa Cabernet. Notes of cassis, black cherry, ands ripe red berries dominate the bouquet. More subtle aromas of banking spice and caramel add to its complexity. These amplify on the palate a hundred-fold, displaying enormous fruit concentration, massive body and wonderful purity, balance and elegance. This is a tremendous wine that will provide pleasure for at least the next decade, perhaps longer.
