This Bordeaux like wine is an amazing
jewel to have in your cellar. This blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot,
15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot shows great balance and texture. After
15 years of captivity, the color shows almost no browning. After waiting an hour or so for the wine to
fully breathe, that first pour explodes with intense raspberry aromas. The
dominant flavors are plums and intense mocha with a touch of tobacco on the
finish. A nice long lingering finish as well demands a big smile after that
first sip. This is a well-made Bordeaux style blend for a New World wine
and could still age for many years to come.
A top-quality wine demands a top-notch meat pairing, so do not be shy
about serving this treat with a lovely grilled steak or bold burger. This gem
is designed to be enjoyed with food so dig in and enjoy! Cheers!
