{"product_id":"futo-2012-3-pack-owc-750ml","title":"2012 Futo, Red, Napa Valley, Case of 3 Btls","description":"RP99 \"The original wine from the Oakville Estate Vineyard is a relatively small cuvée of 546 cases. The 2012 Proprietary Red Estate is a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. This is a drop-dead beautiful wine with an absolutely extraordinary nose of white flowers, blueberries, blackcurrants, licorice and camphor. Stunning forest floor notes also make an appearance in this ripe, full-bodied, opulent wine that is begging to be given a three-digit score. The silkiness of the tannins and the stunning purity of fruit of this unfined and unfiltered wine is simply breathtaking. This is just an incredible effort to drink now or over the next 30+ years.\" RP Oct 2013\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nJD99 \"I thought the stars of the evening were the 2012s from Futo. The 2012 Futo Estate (72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot) is borderline perfection and offers incredible notes of cassis, tobacco leaf, lead pencil shavings and earth to go with blockbuster aromas and flavors.\" JD Jul 2017\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRobert Parker writes, \"This is a small but magnificent estate on the lower hillsides of the Oakville corridor in the Mayacamas Mountains just below Bill Harlan’s estate and the Bond Winery. The quality of these wines is truly world-class, and what proprietor Tom Futo has done with extraordinary success has been to use a relatively significant percentage of Cabernet Franc with his Oakville blend, while the Stags Leap relies primarily on Cabernet Sauvignon.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe newer estate, which is labeled Futo 5500, is after the address on Silverado Trail. It produces between 375 and 400+ cases of wine that are largely Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated. Aged in the special super-expensive T-5 Taransaud barrels (air-dried for five years prior to coopering), this is a wine of great finesse and elegance and a noteworthy addition to the superstar sweepstakes in Napa Valley.\" Published: Oct 29, 2015","brand":"Futo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32965517279291,"sku":"USR:FUT:FUTO-PK03-2012-F0L0C0","price":975.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0319\/8592\/6203\/products\/Photo_Coming_Soon_79191b67-6ff9-47ef-bfaf-40a4d0fb9436.jpg?v=1586464180","url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/futo-2012-3-pack-owc-750ml","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
