2012 Javier Renteria Cabernet Sauvignon Limited Edition Napa Valleymore |
11/2/2019 - Oberhau Likes this wine: 90 pointsClassic cab nose; includes some floral notes. Taste is very mellow with limited acid and no perceptible tannin. Finish is very long lasting; this went very well with braised lamb shank (me) and short ribs and filet combo (my wife) |

9/15/2015 - Snoman Likes this wine: 90 pointsDark and extracted in color, rich smoky aromas of black fruit and vanilla. Palate is still evolving, but showing good grip and intensity, notes of blackcurrant, dark earth and cedar; medium+ finish is a bit on the green side, which adds some additional complexity. |

10/6/2014 - Awilcox Likes this wine: 95 pointsOk, so I don't even know how to rate wine this good. Ripe blackberries, touch of licorice, leather, all kinds of depth, smooth, way too easy to drink, silky tannins, a bit shorter finish than I expected but absolutely lovely. I realize there are many folks who get to have wine of this stature regularly, but I'm not one of them. Which is to say that I am sure there are subtle flaws I am missing, but I really, really enjoyed this wine. It is hard for me to imagine it being this good or better in another 7 years, but I trust those with more experience than I to opine that. It was wonderful. Very special for us, and a lovely gift from a friend. |
