PerryMoore 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon, Stagecoach Vineyard
(11 months ago) buddy icon hotcosts 92.0/100
This wine was tasted on December 19, 2007 by a panel of 8 tasters in a blind tasting format and paired with Slow-Braised Short Ribs with Garlic-Cabernet Reduction Sauce. This is a big, full-bodied Cab! Dark red, almost maroon in color, it has black cherry, raspberry and caramel aromas and flavors. With legs of a giraffe, this wine is smooth, balanced between the fruit and oak influences, and has a finish that goes on and on. The wine was opened 5 hours before tasting and lasted precious few minutes in the glass. The wine is very approachable now but should evolve nicely for up to 10 years.
