Another stunning vintage of this perennially impressive, accessible wine, this year's includes 4% Petit Verdot. Lush layers of baked plum and blueberry are met by an undertone of tobacco, clove and toasted oak, with just a hint of crushed herb and rock. Full-bodied and concentrated in style, it carries its generosity with grace.

As with the whites, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint is a larger production release that sports a dense purple color as well as classic Cabernet notes of blue and black fruits, green tobacco, graphite, and spring flowers. With a more fruit-forward style, it's still rich, medium to full-bodied, has classy tannins, and is a seriously good bottle of wine.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint has a deep garnet-purple color and sings of wild blueberries, Morello cherries and red and black currant jellies with touches of dried mint, chocolate box and cedar chest. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with crunchy black fruits, supported by fine-grained tannins and bold freshness, finishing long and lifted.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint is a fabulous entry-level wine from Robin Lail. Crème de cassis, chocolate, spice, new leather and cloves are all kicked up in this juicy, flamboyant, plush Cabernet. The Blueprint is made from a collection of top sites on Napa Valley. Best of all, it remains a fabulous value

Beautiful complexity of blueberry, chocolate and walnut character to this red with a full-bodied yet not overpowering palate that shows freshness and richness at the end. From various areas in Napa. Warm, but firm. Lovely drinkability this year. 96% cabernet sauvignon and 4% petit verdot. Drink or hold.
