Sinegal, Napa Valley, Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 Southern Rhone has a deep ruby/purple color97 points Vinous The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is huge, dense and voluptuous in the glass. Black cherry, plum, chocolate, new leather and licorice infuse this dramatic, full bodied wine. In 2015, many of the lots were fermented in barrel, which adds to the wine's texture. Big, ample and explosive on the palate, with real character, the 2015 is also arrestingly beautiful. The 100% new oak is evident, but also well integrated for such a big wine.
