Freemark Abbey 1997 Bosché Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Bosché
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Freemark Abbey / Napa Valley

This big, burly Cab is a Napa Valley tradition. The cedar and cassis aromas and flavors are classic, but boast an untamed, briary wildness to them that gives Bosche its own identity. Finishes long but tart, with mouth-drying tannins that need time to resolve. Drink 2007-2012.
