$50.00 per bottle
Description:
Andrew Hoxsey, Managing Partner of Napa Wine Company has dipped into his private cellar to produce a extremely limited production of 2000 Pelissa Cabernet Sauvignon. Only one barrel was made. The grapes used were designated for the Georges De Latour Reserve Wines produced by Beaulieu. There are only 13 cases left of this this Single Vineyard, 100% Oakville Estate Cabernet. Truly an outstanding single vineyard representation of what an Oakville Cab can be like! We, opened a bottle June 14th, before noon with fresh palates. We started in the glass but realized it needed to be decanted. Here is what we found. Earthiness, black cherry, coffee and a hint of fennel. As the wine opened up we noted a slight herbaciousness of tarragon with dark chocolate, raspberry aromas and a very light licorice essence in the long and silky finish. Drink now through 2012! Truly a complex layered wine!
