Grgich Hills Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 1984
The Winery
Grgich Hills
Miljenko “Mike” Grgich first gained international recognition at the celebrated “Paris Tasting” of 1976. Then, in a now-historic blind tasting, a panel of eminent French judges swirled, sniffed, and sipped an array of the fabled white Burgundies of France and a small sampling of upstart Chardonnays from the Napa Valley. When their scores were tallied, the French judges were shocked: they had chosen the 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay, crafted by Mike Grgich, as the finest white wine in the world. Mon Dieu! The results stunned the international wine establishment and immediately earned Mike a reputation as one of the greatest winemakers in the world.
Summary
Grgich Hills Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 1984 is a distinguished red wine crafted by the renowned winery founded by Miljenko Grgich. This wine hails from the notable Rutherford bench and surrounding areas, benefiting from the warm climate of the classic 1984 vintage, which is known for producing structured and long-lived Cabernet Sauvignons. Now fully matured, it showcases complex aromas of dried cassis, cedar, and tobacco, complemented by herbal notes and a hint of earthy 'Rutherford dust.' Its silky tannins and moderate alcohol contribute to a refined drinking experience, making it a rare and sought-after early bottling.
