V. Sattui Winery, Napa Valley (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

 While Sattui generally is best-known for its vineyard-designate wines, no one should overlook the so-called “regular” bottlings, for they are anything but regular.  This 2015 Napa Valley bottling, albeit from a sensational vintage, can play with the big boys and will save you a few bucks.  Supple on the palate, it is ready to drink now, delivering pure aromas of ripe red and black fruits, a touch of wood spice and remarkable length through the finish.  A Platinum Award Winner at the 2020 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.
