Edge was founded to, in its own words, give our customers a premium Cabernet Sauvignon, without the premium price. Based on this excellent 2005, they're meeting their goals, and then some. Sourced from some of the best vineyards throughout the Napa Valley, and combined with 5% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc, the Edge cabernet features bright cherry and black currant fruit flavors, just a touch of vanilla (only 30% new oak is used), and spice. The wine has medium body, and a perfect balance of fruit and acidity, with silky tannins. There are plenty of cabernets costing twice as much that aren't as well balanced as this beauty.
