We don't always get the opportunity to indulge in the upper tier wines, so when friends share a special bottle, it is meaningful to say the least! We had that opportunity recently,
when our host opened a bottle of Cakebread Cab, one of my favorites, and a real treat!

Long famous for their Cabs, the 2018 Cakebread Napa Valley Cab is, of course, another winner! It is a classic style showcasing flavors of black cherry, cassis, blackberry, and maybe a hint of plum. The finish is long lasting, with subtle tannins and a beckoning call to come back for more. The alcohol content is 14.8%, and Norm's score is 92.

Of course, any good Cab is great with a slab of beef, but you might want to pair it with just you and a glass! You might also want to age it for a few more years to experience its full potential, and then again, maybe not.

score: 92
price: $75 - $90
