Scoring a commendable 95 points, the Housley’s Century Oak Winery Cabernet Sauvignon from Judy’s Vineyard 2017 vintage is a gem hailing from the sun-soaked vineyards of Lodi. The terroir asserts itself beautifully in this wine, lending a unique character of ripe dark fruits and subtle spice that dances across the palate. You’ll find notes of black currant, plum, and a whisper of vanilla, all wrapped in a velvety texture that lingers on the finish. This Cabernet Sauvignon is not only a delightful sipper for a cozy evening by the fire, but it’s also a versatile companion to a hearty beef stew or a rich, dark chocolate dessert. The quality it delivers far surpasses its modest price tag, making it a truly great value find for both the occasional wine drinker and the seasoned connoisseur.
