About this wine
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no, wait...it’s...a...METEOR!!! Perseid is BACK! 95 POINTS from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, this single vineyard Coombsville Cab is dropping like a Doomsday event – for over 60% off!!! Let’s go!!! If you’ve scored any of the rare and rearing-to-go Meteor Cab we’ve released over these last several months, you now know what folks like Andy Erickson, Tony Soter, Philippe Melka, and MORE have been saying for years…this site absolutely ROCKS! BEASTLY dark, and inkier than the void of space, this is a CLASSIC Coombsville Cab with a simply tremendous amount of polish. You folks with the wisdom to leap to your cart are probably gonna ignore me here…but you NEED to hold on to a few of these, as long as your will and patience allow. But get enough to crack one open as soon as it lands, too, ‘cause you’re gonna wanna revel in the sort of luxurious opulence that could shame a Saudi Prince. I’m talking about mocha, and coffee beans, candied violets, sexy vanilla beans, and this heady, brain-dizzying rush of kirsch and cassis…WOWZA! The pure red and black bramble berries, the mineral cavern of graphite, and iron ore, and this juicy, VIBRANT plum on the finish!!! EPIC! Winemakers Bill and Dawnine Dyer (local Napa legends) crafted every bottle of Meteor in its history, working alongside legendary vineyard manager Mike Wolf (Harlan, Bond, too many to name here…) to help solidify Coombsville’s reputation as one of the TOP Cabernet spots in all of Napa. The 2019 might have been all about elegance and amiability for most of Napa, but this takes that elegance and straps it onto a rocket pointed at the surface of the Sun. Straight FIRE, in other words. 95 POINTS, and OVER 60% OFF! While it lasts!
