2014 Dry Creek Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside & BenchlandDry Creek Valley more |
7/29/2018 - charlie190 wrote: 87 pointsMedium body and medium tannins, with a surprising amount of acidity that made the wine feel almost sour. Left the glass alone for about 10-15 minutes, and after aeration you can taste the standard flavors of a Napa Cab. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (1) |
