2018 Honig Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Users say:
Honig Cabernet Sauvignon is a timeless tradition of being one of the best, with a full-bodied, smooth and complex wine that is perfect for any occasion. It pairs exceptionally well with spicy liver and onions, and is worth the price tag. Collectors and casual drinkers alike will be delighted with this classic cab.
91 points Wine Spectator: "Bright and open in feel, with damson plum and red currant notes, laced with savory and bay leaf details, ending with a mix of red tea, singed cedar and sanguine echoes.

Atypical, for fans of a leaner style. (JM)" (08/2021) 90 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The base 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley showed beautifully, with lots of darker currant and blackberry-like fruit supported by spicy oak, dried herbs, and a touch of loamy earth. Medium-bodied on the palate, its nicely balanced, with solid mid-palate depth, moderate tannins, and a clean, lengthy finish. This is pure, classic, well-made Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon that has loads of character and should drink nicely for 10-12 years." (07/2021) K&L Notes: While Honig is best known for their Sauvignon Blanc wines that present both impeccable varietal character and incredible value, their Cabernet Sauvignon wines deliver the same set of positives for fans of the category. This long-time Napa stalwart turns out consistently excellent bottlings, and in a star-studded vintage like 2018, they've really brought their top game to the Napa Valley bottling.
