Rivers-Marie Corona Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon - 2014 (750ml)
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Roberto Corona Vineyard has come together beautifully since I last tasted it. A rich sumptuous wine, the 2010 caresses the palate with layers of dark fruit, spices, menthol and licorice. The dark fruit and intense spices are pure Oakville. The French oak, which was quite noticeable last year, has integrated beautifully. The Corona is totally different than the Panek, but just as beautiful. In 2010 I have a slight preference for the Corona over the Panek, but both are striking and absolutely delicious. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025.
Proprietors Thomas Rivers Brown and Genevieve Marie Welsh are among the most energetic and passionate young producers in Napa Valley. Although Brown also makes wines for a number of high-flying properties, he is more than happy to keep the prices of his own wines very reasonable, one of the many reasons Rivers-Marie is a mainstay in my cellar.
