Community Tasting Note

BrandiLove Likes this wine:

Friday, March 15, 2013 - So I'm enjoying this 2009 Amici Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon tonight and I find myself torn between two reviews.

On the one hand this is A super smooth, highly drinkable cabernet sauvignon. The aroma is subtle and very pleasant with a touch of cedar, a touch of dark, dried fruits and maybe a hint of vanilla.

The palate is equally balanced and exhibits that same subtle, smooth quality with a touch of minerality on the finish. It really is a tremendously pleasant wine.

On the other hand, at $38 I can name a host of wines that I like better. For me at least if a wine is going to be this smooth .. this balanced then it needs to be opulent & and least for me this wine, while delicious .. is "common".
