Mission Codename 96 Points of Pride
Agent Red scored a stunner of a wine today! After Robert Parker and Wine Spectator both scored the 2007 vintage of Napa Cabs at 96+, Agent Red made it a personal mission to unearth some hidden gems from this outstanding vintage. And after reaching deeply into the library of our friends at Phipps Family Cellars, he might have discovered one of the best yet - today’s 2007 Rutherford Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is that good!
Today’s wine has aged beautifully and features a classic Napa Cab flavor profile - layers of concentrated dark fruit laid overtop hints of terroir and subtle spice. We highly recommend trying a bottle now, and then cellaring some for later, as this wine still has plenty of aging potential.
