**1998 Dunn Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley** This classically structured Cabernet showcases the elegance that emerges from nearly three decades of bottle age. Aromas of cassis, licorice, and graphite meld with subtle notes of cedar and leather, while the palate reveals dense, supple fruit with impressive extract and a refined, juicy character. The wine maintains the hallmark restraint and purity that define Dunn’s mountain-grown style—no excess, no apologies, just serious Cabernet built for the cellar. Expect firm but integrated tannins and a long, resounding finish that speaks to the wine’s longevity and complexity.

Serve at cool cellar temperature (around 60°F) with minimal decanting to appreciate its nuanced aromatics. Pair with grilled lamb, aged beef, or hearty game dishes where the wine’s structure and mineral backbone can shine.
