點擊次數(shù)：3833

The 2007 The Bully Cabernet Sauvignon contains 15% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot sourced from the Kiona Vineyard and aged in 100% new French oak. A dense purple color with aromas of toasty new oak, graphite, incense, spice box, blackberry, and a hint of balsamic, on the palate it is powerful, structured, and mouth-filling. Give it 4-5 years of additional cellaring and drink it through 2027, perhaps longer. Gorman Winery, owned, operated, and staffed entirely by Chris Gorman, began in 2002 and currently produces 3000 cases out of a Woodinville warehouse. Tel. (206) 351-0719; www.gormanwinery.com

Wonderfully rich, with a lush and luxurious mid-palate, this young wine is packed with berries and cassis, elevated with some citrusy acidity, and deep with notes of gravel and smoke. This wine is still hard and unresolved. Give it a lot of decanting, or just age for a few years.——P.G.(12/31/2010)—— 92
