| Qty=1Size=750 ml, ST[90]"(78% cabernet sauvignon, 15% cabernet franc and 7% merlot) Inky ruby. Impressively complex bouquet of cassis, cherry-cola, potpourri, graphite and Asian spices; lots going on here. Juicy, finely etched dark fruit flavors are sweetened by a suave vanillin oak quality and firmed by silky tannins. The spiciness carries through the long, seductively sweet finish. Showing very nicely today. (Justin's two bottlings of 2005 cabernet sauvignon showed strong leather and game qualities, at the expense of what seemed to be deep, concentrated dark fruit.)" - Josh Raynolds, Vinous (November 2008) |
