2018 | Burgess Contadina Cabernet Sauvignon | Napa Valley IGP Ardeche before a longTasting Notes The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a powerful, old school wine. Dark cherry, plum, scorched earth, game, licorice and tar give the 2018 plenty of complexity. Big, potent tannins lend quite a bit of muscle, but there is more than enough fruit and overall balance to support many years in the cellar. Dark red fruit, mint, spice and licorice linger. This is very nicely done. About This Wine Burgess Cellars produces this Cabernet
