Twenty Bench Cabernet 2004

This was another red served at our book club meeting last month. The grapes are from various locations in Napa and the wine is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc.

From the winery's site: "The 2004 Twenty Bench is one of our more pronounced vintages to date. Aromas of black currants, plums and chocolate accompany the wines dense, inky color, while the palate shows great structure, richness and depth that comes with the first ever addition of Cabernet Franc to the blend. This wine drinks well now and will age gracefully over the next 7-8 years."

As with the Twenty Rows it's available at Western. Around $20.
