Gorman 2009 The Albatross Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Red Mountain)

Country: US / The Albatross Reserve
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon Washington
Winery: Gorman / Red Mountain

This reserve-level Cabernet—made from grapes sourced partly from 35-year-old vines—is lovely in its wealth of detail. A brambly, elegant mouthful of berry and cherry flavors mingles with a note of rose petal. The finish is soaked in graphite, with length, grip and finesse.
