Dunn Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 750ml

Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California

Notes from the Winemaker

The 2017 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is an unusually soft wine from Dunn. Aromatically expressive and nuanced, the wine offers plenty of immediacy, with attractive red cherry, plum, sweet tobacco, dried flowers and cedar nuances.

Reviews and Accolades

94 Points/Vinous
The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a total knock-out. What a wine. In some recent vintages, the Napa Valley Cabernet has been a bit light, but in 2017 it boasts tremendous richness, power and depth. Plush dark fruit, gravel, dried herbs and spice all flesh out in a decidedly intense, kicked up Napa Cabernet. Give it a few years for the baby fat to melt away. This is such an impressive wine.

92 Points/Wine Spectator
Focused, with cassis, bitter plum and raspberry coulis notes that have freshness and tension, while a mineral edge adds range and cut on the finish. Light-handed toast lets it play out nicely and should age well. Best from 2022 through 2032.
