WTN: A Very Classy, Elegant Napa Cab

by Brian K Miller » Tue Mar 01, 2011 5:53 pm

2006 Cafaro Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.

From an estate vineyard located just south of Stags Leap on Silverado Trail.

This was a wonderfully fresh and juicy Napa Cabernet, with piercing cherry and cassis fruit, licorice notes. Fantastic acidity...medium body...again, extremely fresh and lively. BALANCED. Only 13.2% abv. Only $30.

Cafaro was one of my favorite wines when I first was getting into this as a hobby. Lovely stuff

But does $30 qualify as qpr? :mrgreen:
Nice note Brian.
Yes, and how many deaths will it take 'til he knows
That too many people have died?

If it's a good Napa cab, hell yes.
