Strala Vineyards, Napa Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvingnon 2017 Barbaresco Both the 1999 and 199892 Vinous The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is dense, powerful and juicy. Black plum, blackberry jam, tobacco, licorice, spice and leather infuse the 2017 with tons of depth and sheer volume. Although not especially subtle, this super ripe, bold Cabernet has more than enough going on to reward a decade or so of fine drinking. (AG) 09 2020
