LHuile du Garagiste

LHuile du Garagiste Wine Details
Price: $30.00 per bottle

Description: Humanitas L'Huile du Garagiste or 'The Oil of the Garage Winemaker' is a tiny production (84 total cases) completely hand-crafted (literally hand picked, stomped, barreled, bottled and labeled) blend of 25% 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon from Oakville in the heart of Napa Valley and 75% 2003 Sangiovese from the renowned Juliana Vineyard in Napa. The wine is stunning -- elegant, rich, full of leather and raspberries with a classic 'super-tuscan' earthy-ness. The finish is sublime. This is a stellar wine. L'Huile du Garagiste is also the first wine in the US sealed with the Zork cork from Australia. A brilliant invention that requires no wine opener, re-seals easily and eliminates any risk of cork taint.
