Item Description

 

2005 Barbour Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, 1.5 Litre

Jim Barbour, in his 30-plus year career, has planted and managed some of Napa Valley’s most highly regarded vineyards, worked with its most respected winemakers, and been essential to the creation of some of its most highly rated wines.

Jim planted the first block of his own Barbour Vineyards in 1992 and produced a first vintage in 1995 of just 50 cases. Gradually, adding more vines, Jim now makes about 300 cases each year, production dependent on mother nature and her generosity.

The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon is described as impeccably well balanced and pure, offering elegant, sweet black currant and dark blackberry fruit tightly interwoven with cedar, vanillin, and a hint of melted licorice notes. This beautifully proportioned Cabernet is very finely tuned, reminiscent of an elegant Bordeaux, and was made by then winemaker Heidi Peterson Barrett.

When we love a wine, it's always better to have more of it.  Here's one for you, in magnum.
