The 2016 Jamieson Double Lariat Cabernet from Napa Valley is a standout expression of this renowned region, scoring a well-deserved 95 points. Its deep, inky color hints at the richness within, and the nose bursts with vibrant notes of blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and a whisper of cedar. On the palate, it unfolds with layers of ripe plum and velvety tannins, complemented by a touch of toasted oak that adds complexity without overwhelming the fruit. This wine is perfect for a celebratory dinner, especially when paired with a juicy ribeye or a decadent chocolate dessert. With its remarkable quality, this Cabernet offers a smart buy for anyone looking to elevate their collection without breaking the bank.
