Araujo Estate Altagracia Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2013

$99

... One of the finest Altagracias I've tasted to date, the color is saturated ruby/purple... The wine is a heck of a second wine...For now, deep, rich blackcurrant and blackberry fruit with floral notes (white flowers?), medium to full body and sweet tannin are all present in this relatively larger-scaled Altagracia than we've seen in the past (14.8% alcohol). The finish is long... Robert Parker

Amazing, smooth cab. Highly recommend. Need filtering and decanter.

Probably the best wine I have ever had. Christmas Day with everyone in Austin, alongside a phenomenal Bordeaux and others, but this was my favorite.

Doesn't get much better. Super long finish. Round and full bodied. Stands alone. No need for food.
