Freemark Abbey Bosché Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2019 (750ml) Recioto della Valpolicella

Freemark Abbey Bosché Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2019 (750ml) Recioto della Valpolicella96 points Jeb Dunnick From a valley floor site and a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Bosch offers a great bouquet of both red and black fruits as well as notes of herbes de Provence, loamy earth, and spicy oak. Brought up in two thirds new French oak, its medium to full bodied, has ultra fine tannins, and beautiful overall balance. A brilliant 2019, it will evolve for 20+ years. Jeb Dunnuck, February 2023
