Community Tasting Note

La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine:

Thursday, June 1, 2023 - From a pristinely-cellared magnum, this deep ruby blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (96%), Merlot (3%) and Petit Verdot (1%) was double-decanted, allowing three hours in decanter prior to funneling back into the cleansed bottle. It was then taken to a dinner party, where it was serially tasted over approximately two hours. Still very youthful, it remains aromatically loaded with dark bramble fruits, cassis, licorice, bittersweet chocolate and tobacco. Full-bodied, freshly acidic and proportionately oaked, it delivers flavors mirroring the aromas and stays solid on the mid-palate. The wine's 14.6% alcohol is well-integrated and the tannins are polished. Finishing long and smooth, this Cab is aging gracefully. Those holding comparably cellared magnums can expect another 10+ years of enjoyment. Drink now-2033.
