black ridge san andreas red bordeaux-style red blend (santa cruz mountains)

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：1407

A beautiful wine, from a winery that’s piling up an impressive track record. Made from all five classic Bordeaux varieties, this 07 shows the balance of the vintage, with gorgeous tannins and focused characteristic of a mountain vineyard. The blackberry and black currant flavors have a firm minerality. Best now for its soft lusciousness, and should hold in the bottle for a good six years.——S.H.(11/1/2010)—— 92

A beautiful Cabernet-based Bordeaux blend, albeit a very young one that would be a shame to drink too early. The score indicates its current drinkability, but that could heighten over the next 6–8 years. Shows a very firm tannic structure, with luscious black currant flavors that grow richer as the wine warms up in the glass.——S.H.(12/31/2008)—— 91
