Lot #674. Bryant Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Estate 1997

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 100 RP.
"I have consumed several bottles of the 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill. One of the most awesome young reds I have ever tasted, it possesses a black/purple color, a seamless texture, and freakishly high levels of intensity (cassis, black and blueberries infused with espresso, chocolate, and licorice) that are flawlessly presented in a full-bodied, massive yet elegant wine. Nothing is out of balance in this explosively rich, thick, highly-extracted Cabernet. A compelling, historic Cabernet Sauvignon, it will drink well for 30-35 years. It is not too much to suggest that in the future, Bryant's Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon might well be one of the wines that redefines greatness in Cabernet Sauvignon." Robert M. Parker, Jr., Wine Advocate #132, Dec 2000
Notes: Lightly torn, lightly wrinkled, very lightly scuffed label.
