It is in the nature of the 2005 vintage that it seems to produce somewhat less lush, plush wines, and there are those who will applaud and those who will miss the genuine juiciness of Darioush's 2004. By comparison, this wine seems to have a foot in two camps, but that only makes it a bit different rather than less desirable. Connoisseur&#8217;s Guide, April 2008<br><br><b>NVWE NOTES:</b> As in the past, the 2005 Darioush Cabernet is a richly oaky wine of heady-ripeness. The aromas are of rich plum and Mulberry fruit, tied to smoky-toasty vanilla and baking spice scents. It is predictably blod and juicy on the mid-palate, with Cassis, cherry, berry, earth and plenty of vanilla all lingering well. Built for steaks, rich stews and roasts, it will get softer and a bit more elegant over the next three to six years. <br><br><b>WINEMAKER NOTES:</b> Enticing aromas of vanilla bean, blackberry and cr&#232;me de cassis introduce this bold, yet harmonious wine. A rich and well-focused palate is endowed with layered flavors of wild black cherry, plum and espresso. An elegant and generous finish is accented by delicate hints of cinnamon, nutmeg and spice box.<br><br><br><b>DARIOUSH NAPA VALLEY SIGNATURE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2005</b></P> <P> <LI>SKU: DARICAB05 <LI>Varietal: CAB <LI>Vintage: 2005 <LI>Region: NAPA VLY <LI>Web Item?: T </P> <P><B>Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/nvwe/Category376" TITLE="June Cab Promo">June Cab Promo</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/nvwe/Product7578 TITLE="BENZIGER TRIBUTE RED TABLE WINE SONOMA MOUNTAIN 2005">BENZIGER TRIBUTE RED TABLE WINE SONOMA MOUNTAIN 2005</A> -- <i>Notes on the Benziger Tribute Red Table Wine Sonoma Mountain 2005 : </i><b>NVWE NOTES:</b> The nose of this distinctive Cabernet is, as in the past, both exotic and expressively rich, as sweet choc...
