2006 William Hill Bench Blend Cabernet Sauvignon - Napa Valley - Wine Review

One word describes this wine, WOW!  One of the best cabs we have ever experienced.  This wine offers not only intensity but structure and concentrated aromas.  Flavors of rich dark berry fruit, layered with distinct notes of cedar and dark chocolate.  We paired the wine with a great ribeye cooked over almond wood and it could not have been better. 

We had the privilege of touring the William Hill Estate Winery in Napa Valley where we sampled this wine for the first time.  If you have an opportunity while in Napa don't miss out on this extraordinary experience. 

While this wine is certainly pricier than many of our reviewed wines (around $50 retail), it is well worth the spend.
