Note di degustazione
In my barrel tastings, the Simi Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve was among the more forward, opulently-styled 1995s. This attractive wine, which has the potential to be outstanding, exhibits a deep ruby/purple color, and a friendly, open-knit, spicy, sweet blackcurrant nose that borders on jamminess. Pure, with a multi-layered texture, excellent concentration, sweet, plush, fat fruit, decent acidity, and a long, lusty finish, this Cabernet is reminiscent of a deep, rich, right bank Bordeaux made primarily from Merlot rather than Cabernet Sauvignon. It is capable of lasting for 10-15+ years. (Tasted in barrel.) Tel. (707) 433-6981

Full red-ruby. Raspberry, mint and fresh herbs on the nose; showed a slight dill note with aeration. Supple and lush, with intriguing hints of charred meat, smoke and leather to go with the currant and raspberry flavors. Rather stylish wine, with satisfying sweetness and a layered texture like right-bank Bordeaux. Quite ripe for '95, but with plenty of underlying structure.
