Tuesday, October 6, 2015 - First Trip to Napa Valley and San Francisco: Cabernet Sauvignon Addition; 10/1/2015-10/10/2015 (Napa Valley and San Francisco): Del Dotto Cave Barrel Tasting with India.
Appearance: Ruby red.
Nose: Lots of red fruit and cherries.
Palate/Finish: Tastes like it is over a decade old. Overly Light.
Opinion: Tastes like a wine around the $100 range not $175. Was expected more from what the guide was describing about the Villa Del Lago being their Flagship wine.
