點擊次數(shù)：2724

A limited-production Bordeaux-style reserve, this high-acid red has an unusually generous proportion (25%) of Petit Verdot; the rest is an equal split between Cabernet and Merlot. Still youthful and tight, it shows excellent structure and depth, with black fruits, earth, licorice and savory herbs.——P.G.(12/15/2011)—— 92

A limited-production Bordeaux blend, this is a vineyard/barrel selection by now-departed Cadaretta winemaker Virginie Bourgue. It’s silky and deep, with penetrating black fruits and toasted, roasted coffee barrel flavors. Seductive and smooth, this is an elegant wine that warrants cellaring.——P.G.(12/1/2010)—— 90
