Madrigal 2008 Las Vinas del Señor Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Las Vinas del Señor Reserve
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Madrigal / Napa Valley

Pricey, yes, but Madrigal pulled out all the stops on this flashy wine, making it their best Cabernet ever. It’s a big, tannic and dry wine, stuffed with blackberry, currant and oak flavors. Voluptuous and dramatic, but it needs age, possibly a lot. Give it a rest until 2015 and see how it’s doing then.
