Sunday, February 5, 2023 - Retail $65. 73% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot, 7% Cabernet Franc & 2% Malbec. I conducted a wine tasting with three mini-verticals, and this was the second wine of the second threesome. Rather dark and shy in the glass with just a bit of dark fruit, mint, and eucalyptus coming through on the nose. The palate is far more expressive, though with intense dark fruit, a near-bracing tartness, and a well above-average finish. Yowza. I am a big fan of Rodney Strong in general, and I have stated that the Symmetry brand is under-priced and under-valued. This really is gorgeous.
