Community Tasting Note

• I'd Rather Be Drinking Wine Likes this wine: 96 points

  December 8, 2021 - Epic Napa Trip - Day 4: Tasted at Bryant - This was the star of the tasting! I was very pleased with this wine, as my only other experience with Bryant Cabernet was a 2009 I opened a couple years ago and it was painfully young. This 2016 vintage was singing from the get-go! Nose showed plenty of dark fruit, purple flower, earth, with some spice and wooden notes too. Palate showed plenty of rich black and blue fruit, with volcanic rock, tobacco and chocolate notes, coupled with hints of toasty oak, spice and forest floor. Truly a pleasure to drink! 96+without hesitation! Great now, but should get even better!
