Lewis Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Napa 2012
This opulent treasure is decadent and delicious for gratification tonight, plus promises to thrill as a ‘go to’ winner in your cellar for years to come! This new 2012 Reserve Cabernet displays an oh-so silky smooth texture, deftly balanced with a vibrant core of cherry and cassis on the front palate with hints of black currant and subtle baking spices. The complete experience is deeply complex, plush and round with kirsch, cafe mocha and blackberry flavors supporting supple, fine-grained tannins and delivering remarkable length. The prodigious finish includes notes of exuberant toasted oak and espresso. Enjoy now (after decanting) for a 97 point experience, evolving into 98+ points through 2022.
