Futo Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2009

Someone said that this wine was "like angels licking your asshole." I don't think it's that good but it was quite pleasant.

Inky black/purple in color. Nose is almost jammy in its exuberant fruits. There's also a dust/rockiness to the nose. I was surprised how structured and tannic the palate was. This started to unfurl around 5 hours after opening and more dark fruits emerged.

It's everything you expect from the wine in Harlan's shadow. Quite impressive, but I feel the oak was overshadowing to match the hill. Absolutely amazing? yes. Life altering? Maybe.

Great second label for Futo.

Love. Love. Futo always amazes. Even when young it shows so much bursting complexity. Black fruits and oakville intensity.

Needs time, big dark fruits, tannins are elegant but not very expressive.

Big Bob Dillon aka G-Somm

Little disappointed

1.5 hour decant(some fine/cloudy sediment). A magnificent deep dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: bold aromas of black fruit, floral, cedar, licorice, spice. Taste: smooth, juicy wine with black cherry, black currants, wet stones, licorice, earthy, chewy tannins and a medium plus little astringent finish.

Thomas Sorbo

Spectacular.
