98 pt & Wine Enthusiast Top 100 | 2019 Far Niente Cabernet Sauvignon, Oakville
Named for the aerial artistry of the valley’s blackbirds, Air Show Vineyard is planted in gravelly, well-drained soils in the heart of Oakville along the crossroad. This Cabernet offers depth and layering typical of the region, with supple tannins that are a signature of the vineyard site.
The 2021 Air Show Cabernet is lively and perfumed with bright raspberry-cherry and spice aromatics. Round and full, layers of ample red berry fruit flavors flow across the palate, while toasted oak and spice notes add dimension. A hint of minerality lingers on the finish of this delectable Oakville wine and possesses the elegant, palate-filling structure we are already coming to expect from this remarkable Oakville vineyard.
