8FEB340A-F237-45DB-A59A-43A6649D87FA.jpeg


Name:  Perata Frank's Vineyard
Variety:  Cabernet Sauvignon
Region:  Napa Valley, California
Country:  USA
Year:  2007
Price:  $20.95

Vintage Cellar Review:  93 points.  A gorgeous bottling that represents a tremendous value in the heart of Napa.  The would-be grapes for the Estate's top bottling are used here to produce a decadent wine with rich classic Cabernet flavors intermixed with wild spices, tobacco, and fresh herb on a caressing finish.

My Review:  This was wine was on the dry side.  Very earthy with some hints of grass or dirt, but in a delightful way.  Quite complex.  I drank this wine on it's own with no food pairings.  Probably would not attempt to drink this wine again.
