Tasting notes
Possessing a medium-deep garnet color, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Art Series shows notes of kirsch, red currant jelly and black berry tart, with hints of sandalwood and cinnamon toast. This wine is firm, on the delicate side in terms of style, and earthy with beautiful purity.

TA 7.0 g/l. 23 months in 40% new French oak. Showy oak, long and attractive and fragrant. (RH)
Bright ruby. Dried cherry, redcurrant and potpourri on the nose, with spice and mineral notes adding complexity. Deeply pitched redcurrant and bitter cherry flavors are enlivened by tangy acidity and pick up a candied rose note with air. Shows plenty of power but this is quite graceful, taut and polished. Sweet red fruits linger on the very long, spicy, incisive finish. This wine will age on its balance.
