Cliff Lede Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

A classic Cab blended with smaller handfuls of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec, this 2011 is balanced and supple in plum, cassis and minty chocolate. The oak is accented in pretty ways by clove, sage and cardamom spice. Structured and soft, the finish is lengthy and the wine perfectly capable of waiting until 2019-2021 in a cellar. Cellar Selection. Score - 91. (Virginie Boone, Wine Enthusiast, Nov. 2014)
