Clos Pegase 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Clos Pegase / Napa Valley

This is Clos Pegase’s basic, least expensive Cabernet, but it shows the effort proprietor Jan Shrem has put into the winery and vineyards over the years. It’s quite a good wine, rich with gorgeous tannins framing ripe currant, cassis, chocolate and licorice flavors. At its best now and for a few years, this 100% Cab is, in a word, luscious.
