FORTUNATE SON - The Diplomat - Cabernet Sauvignon - Napa Valley, California - USA
"Riper and substantially more expressive than the 2018, Fortunate Son's 2019 Red Wine The Diplomat is a plush, luscious wine, laden with black cherries, mocha and loam notes. It's full-bodied, rich, velvety and supple, with a lingering finish, Like the previous vintage, it's mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, with a fair whack of Merlot." Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
