Poggi 2018 Cabernet Diamond Mtn.
2018 Poggi Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain District, Napa Valley
San Francisco Wine Panel Score 95 Points
This is a big, focused, youthful Cab that delivers the impact of 2018 along with the flavor profile and character of its noble appellation. The nose offers aromas of blueberry, black currant, black raspberry, mulberry, peppercorn, cedar, mace, clove, vanilla and coffee bean poised above firming minerality. It is rich and gripping on the palate where a wave of blue fruits dominates notes of leather, coffee bean, cedar, baking spice and dry sage. Gutsy and long, it grows with airing. Expect 6+ years of improvement. 65 cases made.
