Abacus, 9th Bottling, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Only three bottles have been allocated to Laura Alberts at $375
Abacus is a proprietary wine from the cellar of ZD Wines & has evolved into a Napa Valley Cabernet unlike any other produced in the world.
This is a "solera-style" wine: a wine that combines old and young vintages. Beginning with the 1992 vintage, ZD started holding back in barrel a small amount of each vintage of Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley.
This is the ongoing cycle of the ever-evolving solera-style wine; every year Abacus will increase by one vintage. . . .$375
