New release of Lail's sought after Blueprint - limited. 93 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Always a classic Cabernet based around Rutherford fruit that delivers loads of bang for the buck, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint is going to be well worth your time. Currants, leather, tobacco, and dried herbs give way to a medium-bodied, round, mouth-filling, beautifully textured Cabernet that will drink nicely right out of the gate."93 Points Antonio Galloni: "The Lail Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint is a fabulous entry-level wine from Robin Lail. Crème de cassis, chocolate, spice, new leather and cloves are all kicked up in this juicy, flamboyant, plush Cabernet. The Blueprint is made from a collection of top sites on Napa Valley. Best of all, it remains a fabulous value." Winemaker Philippe Melka: "Blueprint Cabernet Sauvignon is dark ruby with purple edges, revealing gorgeous aromas of boysenberry, black cherry and blackberry puree. Flavors follow in step, adding blue and red fruits with notes of cocoa, black olive and sage. It is richly-layered with wonderful freshness and bright energy. Finely-balanced, long and delicious, this is a great expression of the excellent 2019 vintage."

One of my favorite go to Napa wines. Price has risen every year as more drinkers fall in love with it. Chocolate undertones, velvety tannins.
