Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is remarkable for its depth when done right, and everything about this vintage from Artisan 5 has been done right. Showing ripe aromas of blackberry and cassis, a note of cedar and graphite, with well-judged oak spice, this is blockbuster Cabernet that will only get better with age. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
