Producer |
KENDALL-JACKSON |
| Very deep intense purple colour. Intense, slightly spicy, warm plum-black cherry puree nose with some cedary notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, dense, harmonious, slightly spicy, ripe plum-cherry flavours with a lingering, slightly cedary, fairly high acid finish. This somewhat pricey blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Malbec has 14.5% alcohol and 3 g/L residual sugar. The 2013 (**+) was released on November 12, 2016 at $35.95. TONY ASPLER / 89-points - Cedary, blackcurrant with forward vanilla oak aromas; medium to full-bodied, dry, juicy blackcurrant flavour with a firm tannic finish. |

| TASTING NOTE: The outstanding 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Reserve is another Sonoma bottling (32,886 cases). It is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest the usual suspects in the Bordeaux grape variety category. Dense ruby/purple, with a big, sweet kiss of crème de cassis, licorice, graphite and new wood, the wine is full-bodied, dense, rich, nicely textured and quite long. This wine will actually age nicely for a decade or more. Drink Date: 2016-2026. Score - 90 (Robert Parker Jr., robertparker.com, Oct. 28, 2016) |
