Leonetti Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 1998, Columbia Valley

Winemaker Tasting Notes:
"The 1998 vintage was a winemakers dream in the Walla Walla Valley. The year was very warm with perfect conditions from bloom to harvest. Yields were naturally low and resulted in wines of incredible intensity, color, and fruit. Our 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon is a very dark wine with an incredible nose consisting of aromatic cedar, anise, black cherry, and balsam. This is a very distinctive wine with a rich, heavy mouthfeel. This weighty palate impression is backed by high-quality, fine grained tannins."
 
93 points, Wine Advocate"
"The 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon's bouquet offers aromas of toasty oak and spice. This mouth-coating, explosive wine is crammed with a myriad of spices, jammy blackberries, sweet cherries, and cherry syrup-drenched fruitcake. This is a hedonist's delight, yet it has loads of tannin that provide a firm, tight, structured finish."

*while we do everything possible to ensure the provenance and quality of older wines, it must be noted that, as is industry standard, all wines over ten years old are sold as is, and may not be returned. Purchasing this wine constitutes acceptance of these terms.
