Ramey Annum Cabernet Sauvignon 2019, Napa Valley

Description

Since 1996 the Ramey family have been producing wines that marry old-world production techniques with juicy Californian fruit. And this red blend from the Napa Valley – 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot – shows exactly why they’ve gained such acclaim. Aged on lees for 24 months in French oak, the wine has a silky and rich texture joined by notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, leather, cigar box and spice. There’s no rush to crack it open as it will continue to develop well for another decade, but once you do you’ll find it’s a great match for steak.
