2008 Palmaz Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Cedar Knoll Vineyard Co. Hagen’s Reserve - USA, California, Napa Valley (11/16/2013)
Pretty nose of reddish black currant and dark cherries. There is an interesting note of sweet tea down the middle of this. Palate shows some plushy red fruits, cardamom, cassis and cola with a hint of Cherry Heering. Some sassafras and flowers too. Tannins are pretty big, but tame and overall balance admirable. Finish keeps true and long. This is a Gary’s Wine NJ exclusive that easily drinks like twice its price. Blind I would say north of $50, so QPR it is. (91 pts.)
