2017 Patel Napa Valley Red Wine
Here's a another winner from a winery that we were introduced to about 13 months ago. The 2017 Patel Napa Valley Red Wine is a luscious and aromatic offering that offers a dark purple and mouth watering welcome to the palate. Ripe dark cherry, pencil lead, cocoa bits and cherry tobacco on the nose. In the mouth is a powerful blend of red fruits, barn wood, black tea and cherry licorice. This wine is framed with a solid acidic backbone and pulled together nicely for an amazing finish. Tips the scale at nearly 15% alcohol but the balance is in check. There were only 150 cases produced, but this one should be in your cellar while you can grab it. Enjoy it optimally for the next 12-15 years. Well done!

2017 Corison Cabernet Sauvignon
Any time we are afforded the opportunity to taste a Cathy Corison wine, we know that we are in for a real treat. The soon-to-be-released 2017 Corison Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is absolutely no exception. This bottle was tasted in a line up of other Napa cabs about seven weeks ago and we have purposely held off writing about it until the release date is near.
What immediately struck us was how mature and fine this wine appeared in the glass and on the nose, introducing layers of fresh violet bouquet, cedar plank, dusty spice box and whiffs of tar. The wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvingon and it rewards the taster with black cherry, plum, blackberry pie with a sweet crust and dried spices. The violets are always dancing in the glass. The finesse on this work of art is evident by the long and memorable, effortless finish. You get mesmerized by the amazing fragrances and stunning color of this wine and it is truly one that makes you wish your glass was bottomless. Incredible!
