Note di degustazione
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Reserve is fabulous. It is also the best of the 2010s at the estate. A rich, powerful Cabernet, the 2010 captures the essence of the vintage. Dark cherry, plum, smoke, spices and tobacco all take shape in the glass. Today, the 2010 is firing on all cylinders. A huge, explosive finish rounds things out in style.

The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Reserve is a structured, tannic Cabernet built to last. Discrete notes of damp earth, black cherries and black currants are followed by a juicy attack and a medium-bodied, elegant, Bordeaux-like textural and flavor profile. Not a blockbuster, it is an elegant, finesse-styled effort to enjoy over the next decade. Since I last tasted the wines of Conn Valley Vineyards, the excellent winery tucked away in the backwaters of Conn Valley, there has been a complete label makeover. Tel. (707) 963-8600
The estate’s 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Reserve is endowed with serious power and depth. Layers of blue and black fruit, smoke, tobacco and licorice are woven together beautifully. Vivid yet rich and resonant, the 2010 stands out for its exceptional purity and overall harmony. Here, too, the oak needs time to integrate, but tha shouldn’t be an issue, as readers should not plan on opening bottles anytime soon. A creamy, layered finish laced with expressive blue and black fruits rounds things out in style.
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Reserve is a beautifully delineated, elegant wine laced with sweet red berries, mint, minerals and all sorts of flowers. Today the 2010 comes across as feminine and loaded with class. It will be interesting to see where this goes over the coming year. The 2010 is aging in approximately 70% new oak barrels.
