with good concentration

This is a perfumed wine that offers defined aromas of wild cherry that rise to the top with intensity

the balance is from several Morey 1ers

spice and lavender

This isn’t quite as tight as the Chatenière but it should also reward a few years of bottle age

Dana Estates, Lotus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon other_regions_australia with good concentrationDeep garnet colored, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Lotus Vineyard (containing 7% Petit Verdot) offers up a gorgeous nose of fruitcake, potpourri and dried herbs over a core of crme de cassis, blueberry compote and raspberry tart. Medium to full bodied, finely structured and with great freshness and approachability, it gives a wonderful core of muscular fruit and a long, mineral laced finish.
