2008 Stagecoach Cabernet Sauvignon Veraision Krupps Brothers Vineyard - USA, California, Napa Valley (5/17/2014)
Hmm, If I’d been the one that had paid $70 for this, I’d be pretty disappointed. As it turns out, it was nice enough that I wanted a second pour to help wash down some really good brisket, but on its own, it’s monolithic, rich, oaky, boring. Pretty at times (when it could escape the gravitational pull of the sickly sweet oak and espresso roast), but lacks character. The back of the bottle says “Born from stone, cloaked in elegance”. The last part of that slogan says it all really. Yup, it’s cloaked alright. 15,3% abv, drink thru 2019
