Cabernet Sauvignon “MOOSE VALLEY VINEYARD” NAPA VALLEY

Cabernet Sauvignon “MOOSE VALLEY VINEYARD” NAPA VALLEY Wine Details
Price: $100.00 per bottle

Description: Deep, ripe and intense, the aromas on this Cabernet Sauvignon are of baked sweet plums, dark chocolate-coated raspberries, and (of course) the signature of the D. R. Stephens Cabernets, the note of blueberry pie. These fruit impressions are interwoven with subtle hints of mocha, vanilla and warm nutmeg. The palate impression is immediately broad, rich and full, with forward warm cherry, plum and cassis flavors. Soft tannins surround the sweet, fruit-forward flavors, which linger through the finish. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, entirely produced from the Stephens Estate in St. Helena was harvested in early October 2002, then aged in 100% new French Oak barrels for 22 months.
