Product Notes

Band of Vintners Consortium Cabernet Sauvignon is an exquisite red wine from Napa Valley, meticulously crafted by a consortium of experienced vintners. This cabernet sauvignon boasts a rich palate of dark cherry and blackcurrant, with delicate undertones of cocoa and a hint of cedar. Its pronounced structure is complemented by a robust tannic backbone and velvety mouthfeel, leading to an enduring finish. Hand-picked grapes, traditional winemaking techniques, and american oak barrel ageing culminate in a superbly balanced wine. This is an ideal companion to red meats or hearty casseroles, ensuring it is perfect for elegant dining.

Tasting Notes

The Consortium Cabernet exhibits a dark crimson core with purple and garnet reflections on the rim. Classic Napa Cabernet aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry liqueur, fresh boysenberry, and black cherry are infused with notes of wet violets, coffee, fresh leather, tobacco, and the ideal touch of high-quality vanilla bean and baking spices. The oak aromas impart just the right nuances and are perfectly integrated and balanced without being overbearing as many Napa examples often are. On the palate, the wine is medium-plus in body and captures pitch-perfect balance with the ideal freshness, soft, silky texture, and integrated, polished tannins that are wrapped around layered flavors of soft black fruit, leather, tobacco, cedar, cocoa, and subtle exotic spices. This incredibly young wine is already stunning in its youth but will be hitting a sweet spot as the weather cools in the next few months. Its peak should lie in the next 5-7 years although this beautifully structured wine could even surpass a decade in the cellar if kept well.
