Krupp Brothers Cabernet Sauvignon M5 Stagecoach

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：1845

The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon M5 Stagecoach is a little bit richer and more opulent than the straight Cabernet. It boasts gorgeous inner perfume to match deep layers of expressive, rich fruit. The intensity carries through effortlessly to the long, resonant finish. This is the first bottling of the M5. It certainly looks like the Krupp brothers are off to a strong start here. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2023. The Krupp brothers and winemaker Aaron Pott make rich, textured wines. The Krupps have sold fruit from their large, well-known Stagecoach vineyard for years, but have only been bottling since 2008. The most interesting wines are the Syrahs and Cabernets. The Black Bart Syrah is made from the lower parts of the family’s holdings in Stagecoach and is aged about 20 months in oak. The Krupp Brothers Syrah is made from the higher blocks on the Stagecoach hill, and sees 3 years in oak. It is a much smaller production wine than the Black Bart. The top of the line Cabernet Sauvignon M5 is a selection from a parcel planted with the Wiemar clone sourced from Chateau Latour. The 2009 Cabernets saw lengthy macerations lasting as much as 50 days, and were subsequently aged in French oak barrels, 70% new.Tel. (707) 226-2215
