1997 Cabernet Sauvignon, Duckhorn, Napa
Now beginning to show the first complex flushes of maturity, this is a wonderful glass of classic californian cabernet sauvignon. Rich and succulent in the mouth with sweet cassis, red plum and cedar notes interwoven with mocha, coffee, herb and granite nuances. This is full bodied but beautifully crafted with suave, integrated tannins and a burst of freshness on the long, expansive finish.
