Product Description
RP97+ The 2017 Oakville Estate Proprietary Red Wine is composed of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Cabernet Franc and aged for 22 months in French oak, 47% new. Deep garnet-purple in color, it leaps from the glass with gregarious notions of baked plums, crème de cassis and blueberry pie plus hints of sandalwood, menthol, cinnamon stick and cedar chest with a waft of dried lavender. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is filled with juicy black and blue fruit layers, framed by a suggestion of soft tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and spicy. 343 cases were made.
AG94+ The 2017 Oakville Estate Red is a pretty, racy wine with expressive top notes from the 12% Franc that are especially evident. Today, the 2017 is a bit tight, but it has tons of potential, especially once the tannins soften a bit. This is a good example of a 2017 that feels a bit nervy in the early going.
