Bevan Cellars 2017 Wildfoote Vixen Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Maybe I have listened to the Hamilton Soundtrack one too many times, but if one wine should be consumed while listening to the track “Right hand Man” where they introduce George Washington saying, “here comes the General”, it should be the 2016 Wildfoote. How this wine turned into such a commanding Cabernet, I have no idea. Usually it is beauty and grace. This year it is power and explosive aromatics. The purity of fruit is ridiculous. If you pass on this wine, you will be sorry.

"I loved the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Wildfoote Vineyard. This beauty has a huge nose of blue fruits, flowers, peach pit, and violets. It's full-bodied, has a forward, sexy profile, and no hard edges, as well as more mid-palate depth than most in the vintage. It's a beautiful, sexy example of this cuvée that's going to drink nicely right out of the gate."
