MOUNT VEEDER WINERY NAPA VALLEY CABERNET SAUVIGNON, CALIFORNIA 2018

Varietal: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Region: Napa Valley, California

Tastes Like: Blackberry, cocoa, and black peppercorn unite on the layered palate with complex notes dark berry and cassis with highlights of bay, anise and mocha. Full yet elegant on the palate, with vibrant fruit and very approachable tannins with hints of nutmeg and vanilla bean add to the long persistent finish.

Pairs with: Steak and eggs, breakfast burrito, bleu cheese

What the Pros Say: James Suckling - 95 Points: "Plenty of blueberry and chocolate aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied with round, fresh tannins. Lot of blue fruit and walnuts. Then crushed stones with the fruit at the finish. Flavorful, yet not overdone. Give this four or five years to come around. Try after 2025."
