Zd Wines 50Th Anniversary Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Napa Valley 2018 750 ML

Introduction

This 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon has intense aromas of cassis, black cherry and plum that mingle with hints of vanilla, anise and lavender. The palate is layered with ripe black fruits and plenty of lush, ripe tannin that integrate beautifully into a long, toasty finish.
