Reminding me a great vintage of Schrader’s Old Sparky, its deep purple color is followed by a sumptuous, other-worldly bouquet of crème de cassis, blueberries, violets, spring flowers, and camphor. Full-bodied and powerful, it’s the purity of fruit, poise, and balance that make this wine so special. With fine tannins and no hard edges, it satisfies both the intellectual and hedonistic parts of the brain and is magical stuff. As with the Herb Lamb release, you can drink it any time over the coming 20-25+ years. The entire lineup from Rivers Marie is stunning across the board and readers really can’t go wrong here.\" JD Jan 2019\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLisa Perrotti-Brown for RobertParker.com writes, \"The Rivers-Marie label was started by Thomas Rivers Brown and Genevieve Marie Welsh in 2002, the name being an amalgamation of their middle names. Their focus remains to create the highest quality wines from single varieties. In 2009, they added a single-vineyard program to the portfolio. During our tasting, Thomas informed me that there will not be an Herb Lamb Vineyard Cabernet for 2017—this fruit was sadly still hanging during the fires that year.\" Published: Jul 31, 2019","brand":"Rivers-Marie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48261897126125,"sku":"USR:RIV:LORE-0750-2016-F0L0C0","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0319\/8592\/6203\/files\/USRRIVLORE-0750-2016-F0L0C0.jpg?v=1750986803","url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/2016-rivers-marie-lore-vineyard-cabernet-sauvignon-oakville-bottle-750ml","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
