- winoweenie - 11-05-2007
This old SDonoma vineyard has been owned by the Sebastiani clan since the late 50s' and has been producing superior Cabernet fruit since the 60s'. Deep ruby fringing on purole. Nose heavy on black fruits, spices and dark chocolate. Solid entry, weighty center and a 4+ lapper finish. The black plums, berries, and cherries are headliners. Some leather and allspice show on the back end. Still some assertive tannins that will need another 2-4 to soften. Dynomite offer from this august winemaking family. 92/89. 60 by the box.13.8% alc. WW
