Wine Review: This deep ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Amici opens with black plum and toasted coconut bouquet with a hint of strawberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium acidity. The flavor profile is a black cherry and chalky minerality blend with notes of toasted coconut, oak, and red plum. I also detected hints of black currant and red licorice. The finish is dry, and its dusty tannins stick around for a very long time. This Cab would pair well with a ribeye steak. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Powerful and complex, the 2019 Amici Napa Cabernet Sauvignon leads with dense aromas of sweet vanilla cedar, rose petal, fresh currant and plum. The full-bodied palate has notes of dark chocolate, hoisin soy and plush tannins. The floral and spiced nose accentuate the rich sweet palate and lead to a long, balanced finish of complex density and power.
