Neal Family Vineyards Napa Valley 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, $50.99-$64.99, 94 points, poured core black grading to a rosewood red with a clear meniscus and fat stained-legs.
Aromas of perfumed ripe blackberries, toast, cinnamon, and dried cooking herbs with a hint of chocolate were excellent.
As is typical, this Napa Cab was full-bodied, but showed good acidity, firm supple tannins, and delicious flavors commensurate with the aromas plus a late palate enriching cayenne pepper.
Finished long on the trailing palate, hints of loam and iron with a well-balanced 14.5% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my rare grass-fed rib eye.
