2010 Bryant Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, USA, California, Napa, Wine Review

Bryant doesn't seem to get the buzz that it used to and that other "cult" cabs get, but every time I get to drink some, I am blown away.  This one was from Magnum (price shown is for a 750ml).  Purple in color with ruby  at the rim, opaque and bright.  The nose has cassis, blueberries, spice, cigar box, slight forest floor/earthiness and char.  Full bodied.  Medium tannins.  Great texture.  On the palate, this is complex and deep.  Layers of flavors of cassis, blueberries, spice and earth.  Long finish.  This is drinking great now and seems pretty close to peak although it should go another ten to twenty years.  Delicious on its own, this would work well with Grilled Tri Tip (and a Cab based sauce).
