Wednesday, July 8, 2020 - Brought this to Tonny's Restaurant last night for a wine dinner. Theme of the evening: Wines from USA.
Brick reddish purple in colour with matured notes of coffee, dark chocolate, aged leather, and blue berries. Good intensity and balance in the mouth, red fruits, a touch of caramel and cream, tea leaves and fragrant oak notes completed the composure of this 16 year old wine.
A new world Cabernet Sauvignon made in Bordeaux style, a classic Sonoma claret. This is a good time to open up this bottle and enjoy; no harm keeping it for another 3 to 5 years in the cellar though.
