2013 SADDLEBACK CELLARS “OAKVILLE” CABERNET SAUVIGNON

$75.00

Made by World Famous Winemaker NILS VENGE! Nils Venge has always been known as a bit of a cowboy in the wine industry, making wine his own special way, and taking risks that have undoubtably paid off. You’re about as likely to find him on a tractor in the vineyard, than just about anywhere else. Early on, he set the bar as the first American winemaker to earn a perfect 100 Point score from Robert Parker with the 1985 Groth Reserve Cab, and three decades later he’s still blazing the trails, producing bold and expressive wines. The winery is located in OAKVILLE behind Opus One and a stones throw from Silver Oak Napa Valley property. Location, Location, Get a 15-Pack Allocation!

Description

2013 SADDLEBACK CELLARS “OAKVILLE” CABERNET SAUVIGNON

Winery Notes: “On the nose, a healthy dose of ripe red berries. On the palate, it approaches as a denser, full wine; its bold structure is evident. Robust black currant, anise and coriander are balanced by notes of blood-orange zest and violets. Throughout, a graphite minerality adds to its layered complexity. The flavorful finish leaves lingering notes of vanilla balanced by delicate tannins… Drinking well through 2023.”

Crafted in a deep, showy style, offering layer after layer of dense black fruits, exotic chocolates, white flowers and hints of graphite. Our panel was shocked by how well the 2013 was showing and we bought all we could… Kept for 24 months in oak barrels this beauty has had nearly 2 1/2 years of bottle development and it’s gorgeous right now. I highly recommend adding some of this to your cellar.
