89 RP. "A blend of 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and 30% Cabernet Franc, this dark ruby/purple-colored wine possesses an elegant, graceful bouquet (sweet cherries and kirsch) that has been subtlely influenced by toasty new oak. The medium-bodied, subtle yet rich, red currant/black currant flavors unfold nicely in the mouth. This is an understated, measured, impeccably well-made, claret-styled Cabernet Sauvignon that offers beautiful richness and layers of harmonious flavors." The Wine Advocate #114, Dec 1997 |
