MELKA CJ 2017 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Exhibiting a nose of dark blackberry and blackcurrant, nuanced with notes of vanilla, and fresh rose powder, the subtlety and finesse are what strike the mind.  The beautiful framework of this creamy, velvety and rich wine has amazing structure and mid-palate with a mouthfeel full dark cherry and purity of fruit expression.  This wine has incredible balance and length to its finish.

Blend: 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 9% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc

Appellation: 100% Napa Valley

Aging: 22 months 40% new French oak

“A beautiful expression of Napa Valley Cabernet from three of our favorite vineyards that have continually produced great fruit for years.”
