Product Description
JS98 Aromas of blackberries and pine needles with hints of forest floor and spices. Profound dark fruit and chocolate. Complex fruit and always subtle. Medium to full body and ultra-fine tannins. Extremely long and intense. Goes on for minutes. A triumph for the vintage. Drink after 2022.
JD97 Lastly, and I think the top of the lineup, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon 5500 will stand toe to toe with anything in the vintage. Brilliant notes of crème de cassis, jammy blackberries, toasted bread, and a touch of graphite all define the bouquet. This carries to a full-bodied, opulent 2017 that has more fruit, texture, and opulence than most. Nevertheless, it’s flawlessly balanced and a rich, complete Cabernet Sauvignon that needs 4-5 years of bottle age and will cruise in cool cellars for over two decades.
