2007 Altamura Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Product price
$149.98
Description
The 2007 Altamura Cabernet Sauvignon hails from Napa Valley, a region renowned for its ideal grape-growing conditions. This wine showcases a complex flavor profile characterized by notes of dark fruit, such as blackberry and black cherry, complemented by hints of cedar, vanilla, and spice from oak aging, creating a well-structured palate with firm tannins. With age the upfront fruit and tannins soften and the overall structure becomes more cohesive, complex and elegant.
It pairs well with hearty dishes like grilled lamb, ribeye steak, or robust cheeses. Decanting for 30-60 minutes prior to serving can enhance its flavors and aromas.

Expert Reviews
Probably the best Cabernet Sauvignon I have ever tasted from Altamura, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon is aged 30 months in 70% new oak from the same high-elevation vineyard as the Sangiovese. Notes of espresso roast, graphite, black currants, sweet black cherries and earthy, loamy terroir are all present in this dense purple, full-bodied, exuberant, concentrated and expressive Cabernet Sauvignon. It can be drunk now or cellared for two decades.This is an interesting, still somewhat under-the-radar, small producer with all dry-farmed vineyards and obviously impeccable winemaking.Tel.
