Jamieson Ranch Vineyards Double Lariat Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Review
If you're going to spend almost $50 on a Cali cab, and you see this bottle, grab it. It is drinking real nice right about now, and balanced as all get out for a powerful wine. It has a wonderful tannin structure that is present, but not dominating, showing off great acidity that allows the wine to not weigh too heavy on the palate. There are classic aromas of blackberry fruit and pepper, and the fruit core of the wine makes you want to chew on it. This is a great example of how quality wine made Napa what it is today.
