Reserve Cru Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Lara Dunphy Guest
9.6

Sneak Peak: this wine won't be released until the end of the year but, you guys, this 2012 Reserve Cru is an amazing wine! It's 100% Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in 100% French Taransaud Oak - probably the most famous French cooper out there. There's anise on the nose - a Coombsville signature - and dark, black fruits. Don't even think about red fruits...they're nowhere to be found...this is strictly black cherry, black currant, black plum - dark dark dark! This wine is dense, chewy, and has beautiful tannins. This is going to age beautifully, and is truly a spectacularly complex and balanced wine. Mmmmm! — 11 years ago

I am REALLY looking forward to this release. Last year at my annual Christmas party, the Black Cordon wines were the hit of the party.
