    This ripe Cabernet brims with forward flavors of blackberries, black currants, cola and smoky oak. This is soft enough to drink now, but the firm tannins will play against a great grilled steak, especially with a blue cheese sauce.

    This Napa producer based in the Chiles Valley has made a big style of Cab here, with plenty of tannins and black currant aromas and flavor but the wine's acidity tastes a touch out of balance and could improve with time. Producer recommends waiting to open until 2013.
