Beau Vigne Juliet Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

96 Points                           Limited new Cabernet from Beau Vigne! previous vintage 96 Points Robert Parker:  "A blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, the Cabernet Sauvignon Juliet has a similar style but seems even more opaque purple, with loads of blueberry and blackberry fruit, some white flowers, licorice, baking spices and a touch of asphalt. It has a long, full-bodied, massively rich mouthfeel and finish, without any heaviness. It’s a beauty to drink over the next quarter century as well.... ...This winery has been making terrific wines for a number of years, and the current lineup, put together by winemaker Kirk Venge, is just amazing. The10-acre estate vineyard sits at a relatively high 1,650-foot elevation on Soda Canyon Road. These are all dry-farmed vineyards planted in predominantly volcanic soils."
