Mission Codename Saddle up!
Today’s Saddleback Cellars 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon is the latest in a long string of hits by California’s first 100 point winemaker, Nils Venge.
Nils is a remarkable fellow and we are so proud to have featured nearly 20 of his wonderful wines over these last several years. With each successive vintage, his wines seem to get better and better.
Today’s very highly recommended Saddleback Napa Valley Cab is a rich, complex and deeply extracted wine that will delight any fan of big, classic Cabernet Sauvignon. Enjoy this big wine with something that matches its complexity.
Decant for best results. As this wine breathes, it softens to become even more elegant and lush. Drink now, or hold for the next decade - or longer.
