2018 John Anthony Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, California, USA

This dense ruby-hued Cabernet Sauvignon leads with wildly-aromatic black and red currants and floral notes of violet, lavender and rose. Cracked pink peppercorn and savory spices give further depth to the aromatics. On the palate sumptuous blackberries and ripe Bing cherries meld with hints of kola nut, cordovan leather and dark mole. Wonderful tannin structure carries decadent layers of chocolate raspberry cake and crème de cassis into a long, lingering finish.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

John learned the art of growing grapes to produce wine from his father and other pioneering Napa Valley vintners when Napa Valley was just starting to take its place on the world wine stage. From an early age, he worked alongside and for some of Napa Valley's viticultural icons.

As a young man, he put his passion and experience to work by starting his own vineyard management business. John sought small and previously undiscovered parcels of select land throughout the Napa Valley to practice his terroir-driven style of viticulture. In the late 1990s, John began planting his vineyards and in 2006 released the first wine under the John Anthony label.
