點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：10692

I have been following Jean Leon's Cabernet Sauvignons for over twenty years, and the new vintages are far softer, and less massively extracted than those from the mid and late seventies (the 1974 I have cellared is still not ready for prime time-drinking). This 1991 exhibits a medium ruby color with some lightening at the edge. The wine reveals a sweet, cedary, and cassis-scented nose, soft, open-knit, tobacco and curranty flavors, medium body, light tannin, and a round finish. Drink it over the next 3-4 years.Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847) 604-8900

This full-bodied red shows a dark color and muscular tannins, but the impressive structure leaves little room for the core of blackberry, licorice and herb flavors. Best after 2000.??–TM??Region: Spain / Penedès Select to Add
