Tasting notes
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is another good value that offers plenty of Cabernet ripe dark currant fruits as well as spice, cedar, and leafy herbs notes. It's medium-bodied, nicely textured, and easy-drinking.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is a tasty, straightforward offering to drink now and over the next handful of years. Dark fruit, scorched earth, licorice, spice and leather flavors give the 2018 its distinctly brooding personality. I don't think time will polish the angular contours here, so I would not push my luck with regards to aging.
Blackcurrant, clove, walnut and dried lavender on the nose. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins. Structured and precise with dark berries and cocoa on the finish. Try from 2021.
