Winery Louis M. Martini Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2018

California - Napa Valley, United States, Red wine, wine cuvée
0.75 l

The wine has "one of the best price/performance ratios for Cabernet Sauvignon in the world', as legendary critic Robert Parker once personally attested to the Martini "Napa Valley'. A dictum that we can only agree with for the 2018. Lots of dark fruit (blackberry, blackcurrant, plum), fine-grained tannin spice with a seductive vanilla note and an almost endless finish. You won't find more Cabernet hedonism at this price anywhere else.
