Our Napa Cab is becoming a to-go wine for many Ballentine wine lovers. This is a fruit-forward wine, with dark fruit dominating the palate. Blackberry, blueberry, black cherry, and currants explode on the nose and palate. Hints of black olive, dark cocoa, eucalyptus complement the soft tannins and keep this wine balanced. This medium-bodied wine finishes with fig preserves and baking spices.
Black cherry, blackberry, plum, and raspberry meet leather and cacao with hints of expresso expressed as the bottle opens up. This is a big, rich, complex, and robust wine.
A real gem from the 2016 vintage. Stunningly rich, full-bodied, with an unctuous texture, loads of crème de cassis, licorice, and subtle background oak. The wine is approachable now and will evolve over 10-15 years. This wine is soft and feminine and everlasting. The palate mirrors the nose, and the soft acidity and silky voluptuousness let the finish linger for some time.
Beautiful lush Napa Valley Cab! Boysenberry, blackberry, rose petals, tobacco and violets combine to join rich smooth chocolate and maraschino cherry and hints of cinnamon. The wine has a lovely complexity and roundness which reminds us of blueberry compote with vanilla and graham cracker. Toasted cedar with rosemary complement a long finish.
