Reviewed May 2016Serious red with plum, currant, walnut and stone aromas and flavors. Full-bodied yet tight and reserved. Silky and firm tannins. A wine with tone and character. Better in 2020.

This is a big, lush, juicy wine with grip and a fully-formed body, accented with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. A great deal for the quality, it’s well made and deeply satisfying in highlights of coffee, cedar, mocha and blackberry, girded by a firm structure.

Wine Advocate
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa is a blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. This is an excellent value in Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. This is the white label utilized by Amici. Dense ruby/purple, with loads of cassis fruit, blueberries, good purity, ripeness and decent tannin. It’s medium to full-bodied and compact, but pleasant. This wine should evolve and drink nicely for 10-12 years. (RP)

This is real deal Cabernet. What I love about this wine is that you absolutely get that beautiful Napa Valley Cabernet fruit but there is so much more going on with with. There is a judicious amount of oak, it rounds out and adds subtle chocolate and spice notes. There is also a savory almost olive like note to it that plays incredibly off the fruit. Full and rich this is a very satisfying Cabernet.
Notes
An aptly named wine, as this wine has made "friends" with the staff here at K&L! Feels like a no-expense-spared Napa Cab, for a reasonable price.
