The 1992 is the greatest Reserve Red to date. Interestingly, it contains the smallest percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (54%), and the highest percentage of Malbec (16%) and Cabernet Franc (11%). It displays a fabulous fragrance of blackcurrants, violets, minerals, licorice, and smoky oak. Splendidly full-bodied, with huge flavor extraction, but no sense of heaviness or overbearing tannin, this large-scaled, massively-endowed, profound example of proprietary red should peak by the middle of the first decade of the next century and drink well for 20-25 years thereafter. Not to be missed when released in several years, it is a knock-out!Ferrari-Carano's best kept secret are their expensive Reserve Reds, which are bottled in very tall, heavy Italian glass bottles. The debut release was the 1989, which was very good. That has been followed by superb efforts in 1990, 1991, and 1992. The blends have been relatively consistent, utilizing between 65-70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4-10% Petit Verdot, a small percentage of Merlot, ranging from nearly 9% in 1990 to 23% in 1993, and an intriguing amount of Malbec (11.5% in 1990, 4% in 1991, and 16% in 1992).One of the bright shining success stories of California, Ferrari-Carano has a brilliant future.Tel.

The 1991 Reserve Red is even deeper than the 1990, with a more classical profile of black fruits, toasty oak, minerals, and spices. Extremely full-bodied and concentrated, with exceptional balance and extraction, it should drink well from its release and last for 20+ years.

The only Reserve Red to exhibit any herbaceousness is the 1990 Reserve Red. It offers a blackcurrant, olive, and Provencal herb-scented nose, layers of rich, sweet, jammy fruit, full body, and gobs of glycerin and alcohol that nearly conceal the substantial tannin in the finish. It is a big, rich, lusty wine that because of its low acidity and sweet tannin can be drunk now or cellared for 15+ years.
