Burgess Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Contadina 2017
This classically styled Napa Cabernet is big but balanced, offering savory black olive and bay leaf aromas that lead to potent, tasty black currant, mint and blueberry flavors. Silky, bracing tannins support the complex flavors, lending elegance and age-worthiness. Best from 2025-2035.

95 Wine Enthusiast
This is your rare opportunity to purchase a 95-point Napa Valley Cabernet at under $50. This big but balanced red is the culmination of 150 years of farming tradition on the slopes of Howell Mountain. Grab this by the case!
91 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Made using just 15% new French oak and blending fruit from the Sorenson and Haymaker vineyards, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Contadina is gently cedary and herbal, backed by ample cassis. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a smooth, silky feel and a lingering finish, this is a solid effort for drinking over the next decade, and it's a reasonable value as well.
