Lot Details
Description
Colgin, Cariad 2007
WA 100
"There are 550-cases of the perfect 2007 Cariad ... , a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot and the rest equal parts Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. ... It possesses a dense purple color, massive fruit, soft but high tannin... The sweetness of the tannin, the enormous concentration of fruit (blackberry, blueberry, cherry) intermixed with graphite, chocolate, coffee and crushed rock characteristics is striking. This is a compelling, even prodigious wine that hits all the palate’s sweet spots, possesses phenomenal upside potential, and is a modern day legend in the making." (05/11) (5/11)
