Tierra Roja 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon "Estate" Oakville, Napa Valley

NVWE Notes: Youthfully reserved and notably elegant, this wine gradually unveils the textbook Tierra Roja aromas of black cherry, red currant, black raspberry, sour dark cherry, violet, vanilla and sweet tobacco along with a hint of orange zest. It is as polished and sleek on the palate, where black cherry, sour red cherry, red currant, red plum, canela, baking-spice and a bit of star anise all fan-out. The finish lingers, to reveal a delicate harmony as it airs. Delicious now, it will be considerably more so in three years and well beyond.
