| 1997 Dry Creek Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County, California WB Rating: 85 Alcohol by volume: 14.0% Price at time of purchase: $14.99 (Costco) Type: Cabernet / Bordeaux Principal varietal(s): Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and Cabernet Franc Designated "Bordeaux Style" by the vineyard, but not as earthy and tannic in our opinion as your average claret. This is a well integrated, full-bodied cab, with an initial impression of cherry-liqueur-filled chocolate on the palate. There are enough tannins present for some cellaring potential, but this wine tastes very well now, so why not enjoy! Overall a good wine at a fair price. - MJA 2000-06-30 [Back] |
