2007 Nelms Road Cabernet Sauvignon $24.00


78% Cabernet Sauvignon
8% Cabernet Franc
8% Syrah
6% Merlot

Alcohol: 14.1%
Production: 5,521 cases

Wine Enthusiast gave her 89 points. I think I agree with the points they gave it. Pretty dark in color with hints of pepper and spice on the nose. As for the palate, it was a pretty serious wine that had lots of different layers of fruit. Hints of chocolate and espresso, but not enough to make a mocha out of it. Nice big finish with the tannins and acidity falling into place. I've always liked this wine.
