2016 Far Niente Cave Collection Cabernet Sauvignon, Oakville

Cave Collection wines are cellared in ideal conditions and released annually on allocation. Highly sought after and limited, the 2016 vintage opens with beautiful aromas of blackberry and boysenberry pie, cassis, licorice and sweet anise, pair gorgeously with hints of lightly toasted oak. A silky entry transitions to a very smooth midpalate with flavors of mixed berry fruit, light toasted oak, and sweet licorice. Well-structured and polished, this wine is filled with juicy acid and fine grain tannins that melt into a long mouthwatering finish.
