點擊次數：5833

The 2004 Benbournie Cabernet Sauvignon was sourced from a vineyard planted in 1964 and aged for 14 months in French and American oak. It is a glass-coating opaque purple color. It sports an expressive perfume of cedar, tobacco, cassis, spice box, and black currant. Opulent and full-flavored in the mouth, it has enough structure to evolve for another 3-5 years. Drink this lengthy offering from 2013 to 2024. Importer: Negociants USA, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-0993

Jim Barry’s luxury Cabernet is amazingly fresh and youthful even six years after the harvest, which bodes well for its longevity. Cassis fruit and barrel char pick up herbal, tobacco-like shadings on the palate, which is full bodied while at the same time showing Cabernet’s characteristic restraint. Drink 2014–2025.——J.C.(9/1/2010)—— 91
