Tasting Notes

WE93

An impressive young Bordeaux blend, mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, that shows impeccably ripe, clean fruit but also the hard tannins of its famous mountain. Thoroughly dry, its astringency cannot mask an eruption of blackberries and black currants, accented by smoky oak. Give this lovely wine a good five years to begin to mature.

CG90

81% Cabernet Sauvignon; 7% Petit Verdot; 7% Cabernet Franc; 5% Merlot. Here is a nice reminder that extract and depth are not always synonymous with overly flamboyant oak and unrestrained ripeness, and, while it is not at all stinting in depth or rich fruit, this bottling exhibits a bit of sophistication that sets it apart. Nicely balanced, slightly supple in feel and fit with especially well-tailored tannins, it is an enjoyable and cellar- worthy wine.
