Nose

It has a complex nose of cooked blackberries, leather, sousbois and sandalwood.

Palate

This wine has a lovely velvety attack, elegant mid-palate that tapers to a long, chocolatey finish. Enjoy through 2018. May need decanting due to light sediment.

Appearance

The 1989 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a ruby-red color with a brick edge.
