Markham Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 750ml

Classic Cabernet never goes out of style. The Markham Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 is loaded with floral boysenberry jam, caramel and graphite aromas, but also shows haunting complexity with coffee and hints of bayleaf. The ripe berry fruit has richness on the palate and is layered with dark chocolate and vanilla oak flavors.

A silky texture belies a brightness that the grippy tannins show on the finish. Paired with a pile of crispy shoestring onion rings centered atop a tender filet mignon, this Cab would make an ideal dinner partner indeed!

With this bottling of Napa Valley Markham Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Rockerbox Estate Vineyard is the Yin to the Yountville Estate Vineyard’s Yang – coming together in perfect harmony. Sensuous aromatics layer vanilla, marzipan and graphite without overpowering the intensity of jammy boysenberry and raspberry notes. Lush, juicy texture offers perfect balance to the chewy tannins that follow through the finish.

Notes of cassis and blackberry jam layer over toasted graham cracker, tobacco and graphite complexity. Juicy blackberry fruit is supported by rich vanilla oak and full-bodied tannins in a deliciously balanced glass.

Dense and briary from the start! Though it’s built to age, this dark gem is easy to enjoy if your idea of dinner involves slow-roasted meats served on a bed of caramelized veggies or mushrooms.

Vanilla and caramel oak accent the blackberry jam fruit in this powerful wine. Rich and velvety while still showing tight tannin structure that will ensure long-term aging from this historic and pedigreed property. Nothing but a big steak paired with a knife will tame this monster.
