2012 Buccella Cabernet Sauvignon

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

98 Points

Thursday, March 28, 2024 - QPR off the charts if you bought at release.

45 min of air after a shake decant.

Smoke, Asian spice, black cherry, black raspberries, red raspberries, herbal and faint mineral backbone, tannins at bay, oak integrated. Fruit still at the forefront even at 12 yrs, this was awesome. Even Mrs Geaux gushed on this one, remarking that she now understands why we cellar this stuff. While there may be some bottle variation based on past notes, this was a lottery win! Best bottle to date!
