About this wine
This ROYCE is ROLLING! One of Last Bottle’s most impressive debuts of all-time, back for an encore! OAKVILLE Cabernet Sauvignon, over 70% OFF, with 95 points...let’s go! Jeeves, bring me THE ROYCE! Ok, that’s cap. I don’t have a butler. Or a chauffeur. Or a Rolls-Royce (who do you think I am, Victoria Beckham?!). But after today…NONE of that matters! The Royce Cabernet Sauvignon is here, and for UNDER $50, I (and you) can have 95 POINT heady, sumptuous, and opulent OAKVILLE Cabernet Sauvignon for a full 70% LESS than the rest of the world pays for it! Oakville Cabs are the most expensive in Napa, California, and basically, the entire Western Hemisphere – but not today! We unearthed a GEM from Oakville’s hallowed soils, a single vineyard maven of new Oakville royalty, Hampton Royce! The vineyard is shielded like the Pope-mobile under an impenetrable series of NDAs, but this “East Hillside” block has been crafting powerful, inky, Oakville magic for over three decades! Our ACE buying team talked, tasted, and absolutely CHARMED their way into one incredible price – but I have to say…the notion that we will EVER get another vintage of this gem at such a simply unheard of price is lower than a snake’s bellybutton. And that’s LOW! So if you like this SUPER concentrated, and exceptionally polished, spiced and seasoned like a Cajun winemaker presided over the fermentation tank – look no further! NOT FOR THE SHY, and fully alive with aromas of chocolate truffles, and crème de cassis, pencil shavings and peanut shells, with juicy blackberries, and black cherries, and…AND! The flavors are built to suit – every bit as inky, and dark, with layers of mocha, and toffee, vanilla bean, and Nanna’s blackberry crumble…YOWZA! OAKVILLE reigns supreme yet again, and The Royce is a new icon for lovers of all things big, bold, and brash! 95 POINTS and a full 70% OFF is the brandied Luxardo cherry on top – so be sure to score enough for every holiday gathering, and all those cold and biting nights to endure over these next few months…and heck, tack on a few extra for the cellar and the years to come. Just BARELY enough left for an offer – so consider this a “last chance” kinda deal! While it lasts!
