Napa Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

A lush core of ripe blackberry, boysenberry, slate and cocoa coat the palate. Plush and enveloping fine grained tannins and subtle hints of dried herb and clove lend to a velvety smooth and long finish. Joe Shirley recommends pairing this wine with herb-crusted beef roast or braised lamb with peppers and oregano.
