美蕾盧比肯干紅葡萄酒

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：58387

Mature, yet still dark in color, with notes of iron, raisin, tar, fig and rose petal. Grainy in texture, this lacks modern-day vivacity, but has guts, length and depth. Well done, though this Nebbiolo-like style isn't for everyone. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2008. 8,600 cases made, 700 cases imported.??–JM??Region: South Africa / Western Cape / Coastal Region / Stellenbosch / Stellenbosch Select to Add

Over a quarter of a century ago, this was one of the first South African Bordeaux blends. It is still one of the best, a ripely tannic, firm wine that owes a lot to the structure given by ripe grapes from mature vines. Great acidity, great black currant fruits, and great style. ——R.V.(11/1/2006)—— 94
