2007 Realm Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Farella Vineyard

• 2007 Realm Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Farella Vineyard – USA, California, Napa Valley (11/4/2010)
  Decanted and consumed over the course of 4+ hours. Extremely dark color. Initially dominated by ripe, sweet plum — even prune — flavors, cinnamon, nutmeg, dried cherries, ginger bread… Christmas spices. Opens up to show wood smoke and pine. Slightly hot nose gives way to lush dark fruit. This concentrated wine has a firm tannic backbone that while not obtrusive now, certainly indicates that its best days are 5 years down the road. Balanced and enjoyable throughout the evening. Excellent. (93 pts.)
