The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky ..

Some wines make me just happy.
It is not always the famous, great wines. Sometimes it happens with less known gems ranging in the middle price segment and standing in the shadow of famous brands:

1990 Heitz Napa Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasted from a pristine bottle. Disclosing glorious fruit on the nose. The palate unfolds a perfectly harmonious concentrate of sweet plums and blackberries, refreshing mint, eucalyptus, dark chocolate, black tea, black truffles and salty minerality. What a natural beauty! Now fully mature, I'd drink it up in the next 5 years. My personal rating: 92/100.

Cheers,
Rainer

I used to buy the Heitz Cab on a regular basis. It was always a very enjoyable drink. I don't see it around much anymore, and wonder if the produciton has declined for some reason.
