| 1998 Cooper-Garrod Estate Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Santa Cruz Mountains, California WB Rating: 86 Alcohol by volume: 13.0% Price at time of purchase: $28.00 (From winery.) Type: Cabernet / Bordeaux Principal varietal(s): Forward Cab that is ready to drink now. The nose is highlighted by dark currants, sun-dried cherries, and spicy oak. Rich in the mouth, though a bit high in acid to our taste and not quite as interesting as the '97 Cooper-Garrod George's Vineyard Cab sampled recently. A slight touch of green-ness cut our rating by a point or so, but nonetheless this is a solid and flavorful wine. - WB team 2003-03-11 [Back] |
