The 2014 Cakebread Cellars Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a fantastic showing in this vintage, which consists of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot. It immediately bursts open to seductive aromas of ripe blackberries and dark currants, which are woven together with spices, cinnamon, loam and mocha nuances all soaring from the glass. On the palate this is full-bodied and voluptuous, with incredible depth and concentration, as it delivers layers of ripe dark fruits and spices, which build up to the long, opulent finish. While this is already drinking remarkably well, it also possesses fantastic aging potential.
