The Knife Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2013
The breathtaking inaugural release of The Knife is Napa’s first collector-level Cabernet 100% dedicated to serious wine lovers thirsting for the perfect pairing with a juicy Filet Mignon. Bold and juicy dark fruit flavors plus velvety rich tannins promise to enhance a wide array of grilled meats or specialty cheeses. Commencing with a bouquet of fresh berries and exotic spices, a crescendo of majestic flavors includes cassis, Christmas spices, and a hint of espresso plus dark chocolate truffles on the prodigious finish. Worthy of 97 points now (decanting recommended) and well on the way to 98+ points for savvy collectors that stock up enough bottles to enjoy through 2022. Micro-production only two barrels (50 cases) so anyone who jumps on this tiny bandwagon fast is guaranteed ‘first-in-your-state’ status.
