Description
Banknote’s Counterfeit Cabernet 750mL is a bold expression of California terroir, sourced primarily from sun-drenched Napa Valley parcels where Cabernet Sauvignon ripens to lavish concentration. The winery is known for its small-lot, art-driven labels, and Counterfeit pays playful homage to currency while delivering the real deal inside the bottle. Deep garnet in the glass, it opens with arresting aromas of blackberry compote, cassis, and violet layered over warm vanilla bean and cedar shavings. A swirl releases subtler notes of graphite, baking spice, and dark cocoa powder that hint at 18 months in French oak barrels.
On the palate, plush black-cherry and ripe plum flavors glide across supple tannins, balanced by vibrant acidity that keeps the fruit lively rather than heavy. Mid-palate accents of espresso, toasted coconut, and pipe tobacco add intrigue, while a finishing lift of menthol and cracked pepper leaves the mouth refreshed. Decant for thirty minutes and serve alongside grilled rib-eye, lamb chops, portobello mushrooms, or a charcuterie board to appreciate the wine’s savory depth.
