Lot 459
2022 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

750ml

$100+/bottle under the original label

We've secured an incredible deal on a hedonistic Napa Valley expression! Technically, it's a beautiful Bordeaux-style blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 6% Malbec, 1% Petit Verdot. The source winery labels it Proprietary Red, but considering the high ratio of Cab, we’ve simply labeled it Cabernet Sauvignon.

A sophisticated nose of crushed violets, blackberry, boysenberry sauce, new leather, dark chocolate, red berries, and a faint hint of herbs emerges from the glass. Upon the palate, the wine reveals masterful structure with finesse - balanced acidity and small, grippy tannins set the table for dark cherries and blackberries, followed by a graceful finish that takes you on delineated waves of black fruit umami, vanilla blossoms, and baking spices. A wine of both presence and power.

Giving this one more time

"Giving this one more time to settle, but hoping for good things"

Alexander S. (5/5)

So smooth

"Worth a penney"

Frank J. (5/5)

Smooth Cab

"Smooth wine that reminds me of dark chocolate covered cherries. I can see why the original winery labeled it as proprietary. It’s very good. This will taste even better if you can let it age"

Connor (5/5)

A Great Dark Chocolate Bordeaux

"Dont miss this one. A great Bordeaux style blend with a little Petit Verdot. I loved it right out of the bottle and could taste the dark chocolate. But the next day it was even better. De Negoce delivers again."

Phillip O. (5/5)

Smooth Cab

"The cab was smooth drinking from opening to last pour. Low tannin and strong flavors that complimented the charcuterie app and dinner. We loved it."
