Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 2014 - 750 ml

Rated 90 Bright and lively, with a light bramble note weaving in among the raspberry, plum and blackberry compote flavors as toast and licorice hints check in. The brambly element keeps this energetic through the finish. Drink now through 2022. Deep, dark ruby with a hint of brick red around the edges. Striking aromas of dark chocolate, blackberry jam, toasted oak and hazelnut with hints of red berry fruit, baking spices and vanilla. Broad and mouth-filling with a satisfying mix of flavors ranging from rich molasses, stewed rhubarb, tobacco and nutmeg that integrate into a long satisfying finish complemented by balanced acidity, and smooth, velvety tannins.
