Tuesday Jul 10th, 2018 [View in Browser]( DC97: A Classic Napa Cab at an Unheard of Price [2015 Scattered Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley]( --------------------------------------------------------------- This sold out in a flash on the 4th of July - we just got more! --------------------------------------------------------------- Rated 97 points and priced under $30, the 2015 Scattered Peaks Cab has all the makings of the top Cab buy of 2018. This blockbuster red was crafted by none other than Joel Aiken, the winemaker behind 27 vintages of Beaulieu Vineyards. With that kind of experience, there’s zero doubt he knows how to make a classic bottle of Napa Cab. More and more, critics are seeing the brilliance of the 2015 vintage, which shows ample power that’s tempered by impeccable balance and superb purity. These characteristics shine through beautifully in the 2015 Scattered Peaks. With Napa Cabs increasingly priced above the $60 mark, finding one under $30 is a true rarity and an opportunity that should not be missed. Based on the price-to-points ratio alone, this is a must-buy, but add in the quality of the vintage and the pedigree of the winemaking, and you have a sensational find of the first order. Go ahead and load up, as this is a Cab to come back to again and again over the next 10-plus years. [2015 Scattered Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley]( [2015 Scattered Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley]( Price: Hidden 97 points Decanter: "Roasted herb, coffee, black cherry and blackberry fruit compote on the nose. The palate is rich and concentrated but never heavy, with a lively acidity providing a sense of movement. Tannins are mighty and show that this will blossom with more time. 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot." (05/2018) Moses]( | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: June 07, 2018 This 2015 starts off with dense but very expressive aromatics of deep red/black fruit, forest floor, and vanilla. The palate is layered with brighter red fruit (plum, cherry) and fine grained, mouth-coating tannins. Although the aromatics imply a pretty imposing red, there is a freshness on the palate that highlights a level of refinement. Good balanced Napa Cabernet, and very compelling for the price. With its recent press, this is not long for the shelves. --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on: Check Out Our Blog: [Twitter]( [Instagram]( [On the Trail (K&L Blog)]( --------------------------------------------------------------- [My Account]( | [Wine Clubs]( | [Events]( |[Gift Cards]( | [Accessories]( | [Shipping]( --------------------------------------------------------------- Missed an offer?
