2011 Humanitas 'Good Earth' Cabernet Sauvignon Reid Vineyard
$60
Be the inner chef! Take a little white pepper, throw in some dark fruits like raspberries, blueberries and even some cranberries, toss in some chocolate, fresh Bing cherries, a little cola, and a dose of baseball glove leather (seriously!) and you’ve got the complex nose of the Reid Vineyards Cab.
In the mouth, the Reid Cabernet Sauvignon is something special. On one hand it is ‘classic’ Napa Cab, and on the other hand it is uniquely Reid with a tantalizing dose of winemaker Rob Lloyd. It is on one hand brooding & complex, and on the other fun and inviting (like Rob!). Think classic, yet dynamic and mysterious. It calls out for either a classic steak dish…or something bold, yet relevant. How does a comfort food roast sound…or something like a short rib dish? And music always completes the vibe. Maybe a playlist of Rachmaninoff, Beethoven, Mozart, the Beatles and Pearl Jam (yeah…we just said Pearl Jam was ‘that’ kind of classic!) is in order?
