Richard Perry Napa Valley Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2003
Region: Napa Valley
Winery: Richard Perry Vineyards
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon

Color: Dark garnet, very concentrated

Nose: Some cocoa and a lot of spice pop out on this wine. Big bouquet, I love it, finishes with big cherry.

Palate: What a fantastic mouthfeel. Just caresses the mouth, makes you almost blush with its intimacy and intensity. Beautiful layers of black and a little red fruit then move in, followed by a great smooth balance of structure. You just want it to go on and on and the finish does just that. If I *had* to pick a favorite Cab for the day at VC, this is the one.
