點擊次數(shù)：11745

The 2000 Optimus is composed of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Syrah, and the rest Zinfandel and Petit Verdot. It possesses composty, earthy characteristics along with red and black fruits in the attractive, elegant, medium-bodied, accessible personality. Interestingly, both Optimus cuvees are far more user-friendly and meant for earlier consumption than the Estate or Syrah offerings. This impressive winery is doing everything right, and it merits more attention than it has received to date. Tel. (805) 227-1588

Floral aromas, with a core of candied apple, plum and wild berry fruit that's rich, elegant and polished. Gains intensity and dimension, fanning out on the finish, where it shows more depth of flavors. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Zinfandel and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2008. 2,500 cases made. -JL

A blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel and Petit Verdot. Massive berry and fruit flavors, accented with natural spices and 100% new French oak, and wrapped in fancy, smooth tannins. The wine feels important on the palate, and flatters it from entry through the long, delicious finish. It’s great to see Paso Robles step up to the plate and produce such world-class wine.——S.H.(11/15/2003)—— 93
