Le Petit Vice Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2013
This full-throttle Cabernet is seriously delicious, defying the relatively humble price tag. Alluring bouquet of black cherry, cigar box, cocoa, and vanilla bean lead the way. Prodigious layers of pure dark fruit, creme de cassis, and baking spices float across the cashmere-like tannins. This winner is virtually irresistible now (decanting recommended) and will continue to drink well for another 4-5 years.
