even opulent middle weight plus flavors that possess plenty of tannin-buffering dry extract before concluding in a dusty and palate coating finish that delivers excellent persistence
and rich with chocolaty espresso notes intermixed with blackberries and blueberries

Keenan, Napa Valley, Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 Other 96 James Suckling93 CellarTracker At age 10, this is still a big boy. It needs a good hour in the glass to open up some. High tannins and medium high acidity. Nice, fresh, fruit black cherries, blueberries, and blackberries. It finishes long with tilled soil, menthol, spice, and creamy vanilla in the background. A complete and complex wine. This is really fantastic juice, but will need more time sideways in the cellar I wish I had more! Drink 2026 2034. 11 30 2024
