2021 La Pelle Cabernet Sauvignon
Community Tasting Note
WineBurrowingWombat Likes this wine:
94 Points
Sunday, December 17, 2023 - Hard Seltzers vs. Hard Liquor vs. Wine: N: Aromas of deep earth and also as if it were somehow roasted (not heavy like scorched earth), dull black fruits with a hint of freshness, and light graphite with damp light oak.
P: Dark and bitter red fruits with a highlight of lightly bright blue fruits that provides an overall freshness to the fruits. Swiftly scribbled graphite, light on the oak, with earth and drying, steeped tea on the finish.
A fresh drinking cab that doesn’t hit heavy on the palate. 93-94

Every time I opened one of these, they started fresher and a bit brighter, but gained weight and darkness as a couple of hours pass.
