Mascot Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville 2010 by Will Harlan
The 2010 Mascot is a classic example of Oakville Cabernet and a true game-changer as this celebrated winery’s only offering below $300. Sumptuous aromas of black currant, plum, pipe tobacco, and holiday baking spice introduce a cornucopia of scintillating flavors. The luxurious palate is seamless with a gloriously dense texture and a powerful structure. The dark fruit expression is dramatic with black cherry, spiced plum, and hints of cocoa. The finish is ethereal with persistent, muscular tannins. This obsession-inducing experience reminds us why we adore Napa’s blue chip Cabernet! Enjoy now and anytime over the next decade.
