Read on about the amazing 2010 Napa Valley Cabs . . .

"Robert Parker rates the vintage 95--Outstanding and Tannic, youthful, and slow to mature.  Antonio Galloni (Vinous) calls the “2010 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon: An Epic Vintage. “Fans of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon will find a lot get excited about with the 2010 vintage. The 2010s are magnificent, viscerally thrilling wines loaded with character and personality. To be sure, the 2010s – the product of a long, cold growing season – are going to require a few years in bottle. This is the type of vintage that is often overlooked upon release, but that consumers regret not purchasing more deeply when the wines start showing their full potential 4-5 years later. . . .

“. . . [T]he best 2010s also possess stunning harmony. The superiority of the 2010s vis-à-vis the 2009s is increasingly clear, in that the 2010s have much more finessed tannins, richer fruit and better balance.

“Readers should do whatever they can to source the best 2010s, as they are magnificent. The top wines will reward cellaring and be long-lived.”

NOW IS YOUR CHANCE! BID NOW!
