This virtually perfect Cabernet Sauvignon has been flawlessly made and should age effortlessly for 25-30+ years
"Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune
but under these circumstances Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc tended to perform better than other varietals such as Merlot
with a tremendously long finish
This too is a knock-out and a one that should evolve glacially over a 20 to 30-year period as it's even a bit firmer than the Chambertin
Harlan Estate 1992 1.5L (Nicked Label) Bordeaux This virtually perfect Cabernet Sauvignon"The newest release, the 1992, offers a dense purple color, and a splendid sweet nose of minerals, blackcurrants, toast, and spice. Opulent and rich, with full body, and well integrated sweet tannin, this expansive yet graceful wine possesses layers of flavor that caress the palate. The wine is accessible, yet still youthful and unformed. It should drink well for 20+ years. Dazzling wines!" Wine Advocate, RP96, 12 1996
