Showing its youth but great potential - silky tannins, cassis, cedar and pencil shavings. A treat

Sipping Fine Wine
Blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot, deep Ruby red with aromas of red/black fruits, cigar box and floral spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry, currants and ripe black cherry with tobacco, oak and wafts of vanilla. Fine soft tannins, long finish ending with fruit, cedar and spice. Drinking well will continue to develop, but nice now!

It took 3hrs to reveal its inner self, but when it did, wow. Exceptional poise, balance and grace. Warm and silky presentation with bold tannins and moderate acidity. Could use more time, but stunning now. Happy birthday, @Rick K

It’s time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a delicious one from France. Dark ruby in color with a purplish rim. Strong nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, herbs, spices, coffee, eucalyptus, black pepper, dark chocolates, wet leaves, earth and leather. Full bodied with medium plus acidity and long legs. Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, tobacco, dark chocolates, bitter herbs, vegetables, wet leaves and peppercorn. Medium plus on the finish with firm tannins and tangy raspberries. This young Bordeaux is already drinking very nicely. Needs at least five years to come to its own, and will be better in the next 20 years. Showing nice complexity with a great mouthfeel. Robert Parker 90 points. This is the second wine from this second growth winery, and from a great vintage. Very tasty, yet not fully balanced. Needs 3 hours to open up properly, but good right out of the bottle too. A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot. I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses. 13.5% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $65.

Deep color, deep red fruits. Rich nose made of blackcurrant, blackberries, oak, tobacco, leather, earthy, herbs, toasted spices, slight notes of evolution. In the mouth it is supple, deep, and in line with the nose with a beautiful length. Perfect expression of an exceptional vintage. Robe profonde, fruits rouges profonde. Nez riche cassis, mûres, chêne, tabac, cuir, terreux, aromates, épices toastées, légères notes d’évolution. En bouche c’est souple, profond, et conforme au nez avec une belle longueur. Parfaite expression d’un millésime d’exception.

The right wine at the right time. This is solid, harmonious, lush and ready. Very well done with elegance and breed.
