95 JD. "I was also able to taste the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Padrone, which comes from one of the all-time great vintages for the Valley. This deep purple-hued beauty boasts a gorgeous perfume of red, blue, and black fruits as well as complex notes of herbes de Provence, leather, iron, and bouquet garni. I love its purity, it’s full-bodied, has a great mid-palate, and ripe, polished tannins. Drink this impeccably made Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon over the coming two decades."
