The 2014 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a wonderful showing from David Ramey in this vintage. This blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 6% Malbec and 3% Petit Verdot instantly opens to aromatics dark cherries and crème de cassis with sweet pipe tobacco and savory nuances adding complexity. This full-bodied red is beautifully structured with a polished frame and lovely opulent texture which continues through the finish. Overall, this is is a fantastic Cabernet which will provide immediate satisfaction as well as surely evolve in the cellar for years to come. (Best 2018-2030) - November, 2017 (JD)
