medium-bodied flavors that possess a sleek mouthfeel while exhibiting fine length on the balanced and youthfully austere finale
but it is certainly not lacking in personality
There is both good intensity and detail to the lightly mineral-inflected middle weight flavors that culminate in a mildly austere and rustic but solidly complex and persistent finish
and the wine displays plenty of caramel
A restrained and markedly cool nose speaks of the essence of wild dark currant
Chappellet, Signature Cabernet Sauvignon Size:6x750ml medium-bodied flavors that possess a77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Malbec, 3% Merlot. Harvest 25 September to 30 October. pH 3. 78. Warm and spicy on the nose, the alcohol is a little evident. There is real grip to the palate, chalky tannins bringing definition and structure. Cassis and chocolate come together, this is true Cabernet. The alcohol however lingers on the finish much as on the nose. (TP)
