Cabernet Sauvignon - Estate,


(0 1 Star2 Star3 Star4 Star5 Star)
:Wine Rating
:Wine Type
Our favorite estate Cabernet to date, the new vintage comes from a growing season that featured a cool summer which increased aromatic complexity, followed by intense heat at harvest to fully mature and sweeten the Cabernet's abundant tannins. The 2004 blend features the fruit intensity and textural elements of the hugely popular 2002 with the structure of the 1999. Winemaker Notes 100% Estate grown fruit 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot Aged 20 months in 55% new French oak barrels Alcohol 14.7% 3,900 cases produced 93 Points, Robert Parker - Wine Advocate Tasting notes: The stunning 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate... reveals a Pauillac-like crème de cassis note interwoven with notions of charcoal, incense, scorched earth, and graphite. Powerful, full-bodied, and opulent, it is a rich, elegant, pure Cabernet with layers of fruit. It can be enjoyed over the next 15+ years.
