Post Parade Stretch Drive Cabernet 2018

Post Parade Stretch Drive Cabernet 2018 is a striking Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon crafted by one of California’s most respected winemakers, Thomas Rivers Brown.

For fans of serious Napa Cab, this is a wine that delivers immediate appeal now, while still promising a long and graceful evolution in the cellar.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, it shows the deep, inky color you would expect from a top Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose opens with layers of blackcurrant, dark plum, dark chocolate, nutmeg, cedar, and violets, giving it a rich and inviting aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is bold and concentrated, with cassis, dark berries, tobacco, cocoa, and clove wrapped around a structured core. Despite its intensity, it remains refined and elegant, with balance and freshness that keep the finish long and composed. This is a wine that is already delicious, but it also has the depth and structure to age beautifully over many years.

Viininvalmistus
The fruit comes from leading vineyards across Napa Valley, a region known for producing Cabernet Sauvignon with ripe fruit, firm structure, and unmistakable character. After pressing and fermentation, the wine matured for 22 months in French oak barrels, 78% of which were new, adding depth, spice, and texture without overpowering the fruit. Thomas Rivers Brown’s approach favors earlier harvesting and a more restrained use of new oak, allowing the vineyard character and varietal purity to remain at the forefront.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This Cabernet Sauvignon is a natural match for grilled ribeye, roast lamb, beef tenderloin, braised short ribs, or hearty mushroom dishes. It also works beautifully with aged cheeses or a classic Sunday roast. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to fully open and soften.
