title: Liparita 1997 Vineyard Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
description: Packed in upfront, with some atypical grassy, wildflower aromas. Chunky fruit and Port-like flavors make a statement, as does a black-tea note on the finish. Slightly clumsy now, the hope here is that some time in the cellar will help weld any incongruent elements.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Vineyard Reserve
