Gustavo Thrace Cabernet
2003 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon - $38.
This wine is perfectly balanced, pretty, elegant and really only shows the tannin structure on the finish. There are up front flavors of cassis, licorice, mint and roasted red fruits but your tongue will search out hidden pockets of tannins and flavor bursts long after you’ve swallowed the wine. This is much more of a Bordeaux style of Cabernet and will continue to age well in the bottle for another ten years. Give this wine time to open up and breathe to showcase the layers that Gustavo has worked so hard to incorporate into this beauty.
