Consortium, Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 2019

?The 2019 Band of Vintners Consortium Cabernet Sauvignon is a captivating Napa Valley red that artfully blends 83% Cabernet Sauvignon with 14% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 15 months in French oak, it presents a deep ruby hue and an inviting bouquet of black currant, boysenberry, dark cherry, grilled meats, and Herbs de Provence. On the palate, flavors of ripe black fruits meld with notes of mocha, spice, bay leaf, soft leather, graphite, and cigar box, all supported by refined tannins and balanced acidity.
