Hunnicutt 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Rutherford)

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Hunnicutt / Rutherford

One sip is all it takes to delight. This wine screams Napa Cabernet with every nuance. Few wines achieve this richness of fruit and tannins. It floods the mouth with blackberry jam, chocolate and cassis liqueur flavors, wrapped into firm but supple tannins, and brightened with a squirt of citrusy acidity. Beautiful now, and should develop over the next decade.
