Levy & McClellan Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Reserve 2005
It doesn’t get any better than 2005 Levy & McClellan Cabernet Sauvignon, which is just entering its ideal drinking window. An utterly vivid, breathtaking wine, the 2005 is built like a thoroughbred with perfect balance and overall sense of harmony that may be savored tonight or anytime over TWENTY years. The opaque purple/onyx color is followed by intense, soaring aromas of crème de cassis, in addition to blueberry, melted chocolate and hints of eucalyptus. Representing the essence of cassis liqueur intermixed with blackberries, vanillin, exotic spices, and roasted coffee, this Cabernet is cashmerelike in quality and texture. The mesmerizing finish includes notes of graham cracker as well as Toblerone that dazzles the palate with finesse for a full minute. Wow!
