Coho 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 93 Points

Winemaker Notes: “Spicy aromatics of licorice and mocha lead to a rich palate of cassis and black cherry flavors. The wine has a lively acidity that will support the flavors for years of exceptional enjoyment.”

Wine Spectator 93 Points: “Shows the packed dark fruit profile of this vintage. Plum, blackberry, and black currant preserve flavors wrangle for the lead, backed by licorice snap and bramble notes on the energetic finish. For fans of the packs-a-punch style. Drink now through 2032.”

James Suckling 92 Points: “Attractive, ripe dark berries, dominated by blackberries and framed in oak spice. The palate has a very fluid, ribbon-like core of plush dark-fruit flavor. Smooth, long finish.”

Jeb Dunnuck 91 Points: “The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is a terrific little Napa Cabernet that has plenty of gamey blueberry fruits, earth, iron, and underbrush notes in its plump, rounded, sexy profile. Drink it over the coming 7-8 years. This wine is 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petit Verdot, and 10% Merlot, all aged 21 months in 50% new French oak.”
