Flying Wine Cellars
2006 Cabernet Sauvignon, Ink Grade Vineyard(Howell Mountain ~ Napa Valley)
This wine will be aided greatly by decanting to blow off some of the bottle stink. But once the cheesy aroma dissipates what a wonderful wine it is with lovely fruit and balance. It’s also thrillingly complex from one of the better vineyards and one of the best regions in California.
