This is primarily rocky, gravelly loam soils, and this 2016 reveals a saturated purple color as well as a huge perfume of sweet crème de cassis, black raspberries, toasted spice, vanilla, and licorice. The most powerful and hedonistic in the lineup, it’s nevertheless perfectly balanced and seamless, with a texture to die for. This majestic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon will keep for two decades or more. \u003cb\u003e-Jeb Dunnuck 98 Points\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Grade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949026078767,"sku":"132031","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/kinglybtl_f971867f-788d-4cb1-ac99-a1bd4f091224.jpg?v=1771487828","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/the-grade-cellar-kingly-project-cabernet-sauvignon-2016","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
