Sequoia Grove Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
A classic, powerful Cabernet fom Napa Valley's famed Rutherford Bench! Sequoia Grove is one of those great small family-run wineries in the prime Cabernet area of Napa Valley that has managed to remain under the radar. One of the best Cabs we've tasted in this price range, its full of the big tannins and a healthy dose of American Oak that Silver Oak fans love. The grapes come from well-regarded vineyards in the Napa Valley and Sequoia Grove's own estate vineyards in Rutherford. 91 Points Robert Parker: "A barrel sample blended of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2016 Sequoia Grove Cabernet Sauvignon is deep purple-black in color and features open-knit notions of crushed blueberries, black cherries and red and black currants with suggestions of pencil shavings and tilled soil. Medium to full bodied, the palate gives a great concentration of earth-laced black fruits with a pleasantly chewy finish."

Good as always but needs to age for much longer. Alcoholic tasting and thick — needs to open up much more but great flavor.

Always a pleasure. It was good 25 years ago, and it's good now. Creamy, with a blueberry pie note. Ripe fruit on palate, with structure. Always classy. Bottle #1 in FL.
