Product Description
AG96 "Dalla Valle's 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with the most exquisite bouquet imaginable. A picture perfect example of the vintage, the Cabernet Sauvignon is endowed with expressive, silky fruit and fabulous overall balance. Bright red berries, savory herbs, espresso, cedar, mint and sweet spices all flow through to the finish. I very much like the tension and energy in the glass. Next to the 2010, the 2009 is more floral and red-toned, but those attributes might change as the wine develops in bottle." AG for VM Dec 2012
LP96 "The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon and 21% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet colored, it needs a little swirling to uncover notions of baked black plums, boysenberries, and creme de cassis, with suggestions of menthol, black olives, and black truffles. The full-bodied palate has a solid frame of grainy tannins and seamless freshness supporting the taut black fruit and savory layers, finishing long with loads of youthful fruit layers."
