2017 Favia Napa Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon 750Ml

The barrel sample of 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville has a very deep garnet-purple color and boldly springs from the glass with notes of crushed redcurrants, kirsch and cassis plus hints of mossy bark, pencil lead and beef drippings with a touch of tobacco. Firm, grainy and fresh, the medium-bodied palate packs in a lot of red and black fruit layers with loads of earthy nuances and a solid backbone of grainy tannins, finishing long with an herbal lift.
