Forman Napa Cabernet Sauvignon 1997

One might conclude from the combination that indeed a fairly powerful wine would emerge. And this does hold true – there’s a lot of power to the 1997Forman Cabernet Sauvignon.

The vibrant fruit complexity which seemed to arrive out of nowhere was a very pleasant surprise. Nature is difficult to understand and certainly can’t be controlled. This, I suppose, is part of the charm. You’re never really sure about what you are going to get. I’m glad to report however, as already stated, this is a good one and really is not to be missed.

Layer upon layer open as the wine aerates. Tobacco and ripe berry jam aromas blend so beautifully with a subtle vanilla-smoky oak background. One could go on and on as there are so many agreeable facets to ponder and enjoy. Wow! The flavors to do not disappoint either.

The multi-faceted aromas are echoed in the flavor and are surrounded with a mouth filling richness of ultra-fine and ripe phenolics with a delicious bold finish.

It’s hard not love this one!
