Keever Inspirado 2018 Dry dried herb and savoury/old leather

dried herb and savoury/old leather characters which all contribute to the wine's obvious complexity

firm and youthfully austere finale

The vines have survived because they grow in the deep delta sands which keeps the phylloxera root louse in check

yet not lacking in tension

Keever Inspirado 2018 Dry dried herb and savoury/old leatherChecking in as 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, the 2018 Inspirado offers a beautiful perfume of blue fruits, violets, tobacco, and earth. This carries to a full bodied 2018 with a supple, elegant texture, beautiful balance, and enough structure and tannins to evolve for a solid 15 years or so. It's not the most complex wine out there, but it offers serious Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon bang for the buck! 92 points Jeb
