Post Parade 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 96 Points

Jeb Dunnuck 96 Points: “The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon plays in the more full-bodied end of the spectrum yet still stays incredibly graceful and balanced. Impressive blue fruits, violets, and foresty, herbal notes define the bouquet, and I love its purity of fruit, and it has seamless tannins followed by a great finish. Drink this beauty any time over the coming 15+ years.”

Thomas Rivers Brown Winemaker: “”The 2018 Post Parade Cabernet Sauvignon exudes layers of flavor, power, depth, and nuance. In the glass the wine displays a nearly opaque purple-red hue with a dark ruby halo. Aromatic notes suggest clove, blackberry jam, cedar and baking chocolate. The consistent, sleek palate expresses notes of blueberry reduction, cinnamon, cigar box, cassis, violet and crushed river rock.  The finely integrated tannins and delicate acidity provide just the right amount of structure to keep everything balanced, drawing out an extended floral finish.”
