Review Date: 12/2010Probably the best Cabernet Sauvignon I have ever tasted from Altamura, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon is aged 30 months in 70% new oak from the same high-elevation vineyard as the Sangiovese. Notes of espresso roast, graphite, black currants, sweet black cherries and earthy, loamy terroir are all present in this dense purple, full-bodied, exuberant, concentrated and expressive Cabernet Sauvignon. It can be drunk now or cellared for two decades. (RP)

Notes
Altamura is a family-owned estate in Napa Valley’s Wooden Valley, founded in 1985 by Frank and Karen Altamura. The winery is known for its estate-farmed vineyards, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to producing wines that combine richness with balance. Over the years, Altamura has earned a reputation as one of Napa’s most consistent small producers, crafting Cabernet Sauvignon that reflects both the family’s hands-on approach and the distinct terroir of their secluded valley.
