Top-notch Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon for less than $40 a bottle is rare, but it does exist. The 2012 from Louis Martini offers a glimpse of the magic of Napa Valley Cabernet, with a richly textured, powerful wine from this vintage. It shows aromas of blackberry and currant, with finely integrated tannins and a dollop of sweet oak. Platinum award winner at the 2015 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition.
