Frog's Leap 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

W&S 94pts. - According to Wine & Spirits: John Williams at Frog’s Leap is not out to make the ripest cabernet in the valley. He’s a grower, and it appears that he tuned his organically farmed vines precisely to the long, moderate 2007 season, producing a wine that stretches from the roots to the leaves and reaches toward cool, pure, tightly balanced fruit. It’s an elegant cabernet, the fruit transparent enough to show the character of Rutherford through the lens of woodland strawberries and red and black currants. Delicious on release, this gets better with air, as it will in bottle. A wine to cellar for ten years and enjoy along the way with lamb. Winemaker Notes - Aromas of currant and blackberry combine with a warm spice tone. Flavors of dried black fruits pick up on the palate with added, subtle touches of cedar, leather and a hint of black olive.
