格魯斯酒莊珍藏赤霞珠紅葡萄酒

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：26587

The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve exhibits a dark ruby color along with a muted nose (as if the wine had been seriously processed) of moderately sweet red and black currant fruit on the attack and mid-palate. The finish falls off and the wine is shallow but pleasant. There is nothing about the current wines that is similar to the great wines Groth made in the eighties. The same thing can be said for another estate that produced phenomenal wines in the late sixties and seventies, Mayacamas, only to fall on hard times and never recover.

Tight and concentrated, with a dense, rich, chewy beam of dried currant, mineral, graphite, black cherry and blackberry fruit that's intense and full-blown, both flexing its muscle while displaying deft balance. Ends with a compact, layered finish. Best from 2012 through 2022. 3,500 cases made. -JL
