Tasting Notes

WE94

An arresting blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (62%), Merlot (27%) and Cabernet Franc, it displays purity with its herb, bay leaf, earth and cherry flavors. The exquisite balance is where this wine really shines, winning over on its elegance, detail and length rather than power. It shows first-class fruit and exceptional winemaking. Editors' Choice.

RP92

Moving to the reds, the 2009 Carriage House is a blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc aged in French oak, some new. Pretty, perfumed and elegant, it delivers classic black cherry, cassis, underbrush, lead pencil and herb aromas as well as a medium to full-bodied, elegant and lengthy feel on the palate. It will benefit from short-term cellaring and evolve nicely for 10-15 years. Drink now-2024.
