Wine Details
Price:
$28.00 per bottle
Description:
A distinctly masculine wine, though with some elements of interesting ambiguity, like Johnny Deppin Pirates of the Caribbean. Sweet fruit-wood smoke with licorice-tar & other grand aromatics of tobacco & leather, a medley of ripe, black berries & cassis in a finely carved cedar cask. Perhaps a trace of mint & something of lavender? This Cabernet is so extracted & dark that youcannot see though it unless you hold your glass above your head at a sharp horizontal angle, looking up through a thin layer of wine in your tilted glass towards a bright light, thus revealing its limpid clarity. Occasionally, some of the fine liquid will spill upon your pate, in which case consider yourself properly anointed. Grapes: the Carver Vineyard in the York Mountain appellation west of Paso Robles. Aged: barrelfermented & aged 43 months in oak. Ageability: longer than most of us.
