Tasting - Perata Frank's Vineyard


Name: Perata Frank's Vineyard 
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon 
Region: Nappa Valley, Yountville
Country: California 
Year: 2007
Price: $20.95
Shop review: A gorgeous bottling that represents a tremendous value in the heart of Napa.  The would-be grapes for the Estate's top bottling are used here to produce a decadent wine with rich classic Cabernet flavors intermixed with wild spices, tobacco and fresh herb on a caressing finish. 
My review: I thought this wine was really great! I would have totally bought it if it wasn't $20, that was disappointing.  Maybe when I have some extra money, I'll go get it :).  It smelled really good even though I wasn't sure what it smelled like.  It was very clean to me at first and had a strong ending taste.  I did pick up some spiciness which was cool too.  I didn't think I really liked cabs but this one was really great! 
Food: no food
