Note di degustazione
The 2014 Reserve Claret checks in as a blend of 56% Merlot and 44% Cabernet Sauvignon that’s mostly from the Sonoma side of the region (it’s 23% from Napa County). This deep ruby/purple-colored effort offers a rocking bouquet of spice plums, black raspberries, dried flowers, toasty oak and graphite. Deep, plush, full-bodied and layered, with a gorgeous texture and sweet tannin, it can be drunk anytime over the coming 20+ years.

Composed of 56% Merlot and 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, with 77% coming from Sonoma and 23% from Napa, the 2014 Claret Reserve is medium to deep garnet-purple in color and offers notes of mulberries, warm plums, red currant jelly and kirsch with hints of underbrush, cigar box and pencil lead. Medium-bodied, soft, elegantly fruited and very earthy in the mouth, it has a nice suggestion of chew to the texture and plenty of invigorating freshness, finishing with great length.
Pride's 2014 Reserve Claret is dense, concentrated and unctuous on the palate. Succulent dark cherry, plum, smoke, tobacco, espresso, wildflowers and mint build in a flamboyantly ripe, silky Claret. Today, the 2014 is rich and explosive in feel, but it will be even better in a few years' time, once some of the baby fat has melted away. This is a pretty opulent style, and yet it works. (AG)
