Tasting Report: 10 Top Napa Valley 2010s

Cooler, wetter and longer than normal, the 2010 vintage was a difficult year for California’s Napa Valley, yet it produced many beautiful cabernet sauvignons in a more traditional style harking back to the great wines of the 1960s and ’70s. Some may even call them Bordeaux-like. Here are 10 of the best I tasted on a trip to Napa during which I reviewed more than 350 wines.

This first appeared in the June 2014 issue of Asia Tatler with editions in China, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines.
