2003 | Red Meritage
(Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot / Cabernet Franc)
Rosenblum Cellars; Holbrook Mitchell (Vineyard) Trio
Napa Valley; Yountville, CA USA
(91-93; Drink 2023-33)
Perfect cork.
Fantastic ripe plum notes to the nose and palate. I don't know the exact blending percentages of the grapes, but assume CS is dominant since it's listed first on the back label. But, the Merlot is most prominent at this age and it's singing a beautiful song tonight after 3H in the decanter. Last bottle from release purchase in April 2006, winery direct.
