2001 Karl Lawrence Cabernet Sauvignon (USA, California, Napa Valley)


Felt like something fruitier and dark and this fit the bill nicely. Popped and Poured. Nose is soaring out of the glass with chocolate, cassis liqueur, ripe plum, sandalwood and a hint of vanilla bean and pain grille. Color is a dark garnet red. The flavors are that of black currants, tobacco, leather, and dried herbs. Texture is smooth and velvety and finish long. Tannins seemed a touch bitter, but not to the extent that it gets distracting. Very solid wine and a real pleasure to drink. Certainly one of the best QPR Cabs from California considering the consistently high quality.
