1997 Markham Reserve

[winoweenie]

Offered only at the winery. Brite deep ruby. Expansive nose of red berries, vanilla, spices and a hint of dust. Great entry,weighty center and a killer 4&1/2 lapper finish. Still some silky tannins to resolve so will probably improve some over the next 1-3 but who cares?A classic cabernet at or close to TTOIG. Was very limited and a 6 bottle allocation. 93-4/92. 65 at the vineyard, 14.5% alc. WW
