Note di degustazione
Deeply expressive black and blue fruit, menthol, violets and spices burst from the inky-colored 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon. A totally round, seamless wine, the 2009 is endowed with serious depth and power. Despite its considerable immediate appeal, the 2009 needs time in the glass to open up. As that happens, smoke, tar, licorice and scorched earth notes become more prominent, lending an air of gravitas. Today, the tannins retain some firmness, but as they begin to soften, the 2009 will offer considerable pleasure.

Lindstrom’s Nicali Vineyard in Stags’ Leap is notable for a cool microclimate that produces small grapes packed with flavor, structure and incredible personality. Tel.

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is plush, deep and inviting. Rich layers of blue and black fruit, spices, mint, white flowers and licorice wrap around the palate in this sensual, textured wine. The 2009 is fresh, vibrant and very young. It needs time to develop its aromatic complexity, but it already very promising. This is a great effort from Lindstrom and winemaker Celia Welch.
