Napa Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Review
Gotta party to go to? Don’t know the host that well? Forgot to get a wine? This Cab will do as a last minute pick up. It’s easy drinking and in line with the homogenous, crowd-pleasing style you often find from California. It’s big and oaky with a lot of alcohol and a good amount of acidity to appeal to some softer palates. I wouldn’t bring this bottle to a wine focused event, but definitely for a wine table at a shindig.
