Forman Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, California, USA, 2011

Description

The 2011 Forman Cabernet Sauvignon is an estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon crafted by renowned vintner Ric Forman, one of Napa Valley's pioneering winemakers. Produced from the historic Forman Vineyard on Howell Mountain and surrounding Napa Valley estate vineyards, this wine reflects Forman's philosophy of balance, elegance, and age-worthiness rather than sheer power.

The 2011 vintage displays inviting aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, cassis, cedar, graphite, tobacco leaf, and dried herbs. On the palate, layers of dark berries, cocoa, espresso, and subtle oak are framed by refined tannins and vibrant acidity. The cooler 2011 growing season produced a wine with exceptional freshness, structure, and classic Napa Valley character that continues to evolve beautifully with bottle age.

Produced and bottled by Forman Vineyard in St. Helena, California, this estate Cabernet Sauvignon is an excellent addition for collectors and lovers of traditionally styled Napa Valley wines.
