2004 Domaine A Cabernet Sauvignon
All the power and presence of a great Bordeaux blend with small components of merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot.
Potent cassis, tea leaf and cedar characters with notes of peppercorn, anise and Provencale herbs. Fine grained, powdery tannins and long cellaring potential. A wine of majestic elegance from the coldest vintage on record at the site.
2004 Domaine A Cabernet Sauvignon
After sleeping quietly in new French oak for three years and then three years in our cellar we are proud to present yet another outstanding Domaine A Cabernet Sauvignon.
2004 was a late ripening vintage. The last Cabernet grapes were picked the first week of June... after the leaves fell off the vine. Despite this the fruit has developed extraordinary varietal characters. The nose shows intense blackberry, lavender, clove, soy and anise. The palate is full and round with beautifully elegant fine- grained tannins. The oak is perfectly balanced. The rewards of cellaring this wine will be great.
