Harbison Cabernet Sauvignon Pony Express Oakville 2018 750ml

Harbison Estate is a small family winery in Oakville, where its vineyard sits among some of the appellation's most famous neighbors. Pony Express is a single-parcel Cabernet Sauvignon drawn from one block of the estate and bottled separately to showcase its character. The 2018 vintage was one of Napa Valley's finest in recent memory, a long, mild growing season without major heat spikes that produced generous yields of ripe, balanced, perfumed fruit. Expect blackcurrant, black cherry and blueberry with cocoa, cedar and graphite on a plush, full-bodied palate with fine-grained tannins. Lovely now with decanting, it should develop well over the next 15 to 20 years.
