Trefethen Family Vineyards, Oak Knoll District (Napa Valley, California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Jan 27, 2015

By Robert Whitley

 This vintage of Trefethen’s estate Cabernet is a stunning example of the winery’s prowess over the past four decades. It has everything, and everything is in balance, making it a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon of uncommon harmony. On the nose this vintage exhibits aromas of ripe cassis and wood-spice. On the palate it is seamless and inviting, with layers of rich dark fruits, silky tannins and a lasting finish. Platinum award winner at the 2015 San Diego International Wine Competition.
