Nick's Pick and a Staff Selection! A chance to try a wine from the famous Philip Melka, one of my favorite boutique Napa Cabernet producers, and it is terrific value.

91 points from Antonio Galoni of Robert Parker's Wine Advocate!

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Cru is a fleshy wine layered with dark red fruit, flowers, spices, new leather and mocha. This dark Cabernet Sauvignon is graced with considerable depth and tons of class. A gorgeous, delineated finish adds finesse to this rich, textured Cabernet. The 2009 Cru is 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Malbec, mostly from vineyards in St. Helena. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019.

Cru, the word, means Vintage as a noun or Vineyard as an adjective. Cru can refer to a class of wines in France as well. This has no association with Mariposa Winery's Cru.
