1987 Sunny St. Helena Winery Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley

Sunny St. Helena winery dates back to the 1930's and is called Merryvale Winery today. It's located on Main Street right across from Gott's Roadside and produces beautiful wines (including one of my all time favorites called Profile). Bold, rich and  with aromas of black cherry and currant, followed by full-bodied, complex flavors of blackberry, chocolate and smoky oak that come together in a long  elegant finish. The intense and elegant flavors of the 1996  St Helena Cabernet Sauvignon would be ideal in 3rd day after opening  or long decanting.
