ANTICA NAPA VALLEY CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2006
Product Description
750 ML. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The name is a combination of "Antinori" and "California," and in Italian it means ancient, which is appropriate, since Giovanni di Piero Antinori joined the Florentine Guild of Vinters in 1385. Wine Spectator gave this a thumbs-up for 'A rich, smoky style, with dense, tarry wild berry, sage, cedar and underbrush flavors, which give this a wild savory personality that's distinctive…' It takes vision and courage to step outside a 600-year comfort zone, but that’s exactly what Marchese Antinori has done here.
