The New Craze: Mister Wright Sampler Sets
Mister Wright Fine Wines : 1593 Third Avenue : (212) 722-4564 :
100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Shafer's Hillside Estate Vineyards in Stags Leap District including the vineyard blocks Sunspot, John's Folly, Venado Ilegal and Firebreak. Aged 32 months in 100% new 60-gallon French oak barrels
The cool weather in spring continued into the sunny, mild summer, holding fruit development to a slow, even pace. With extra work in the vineyard, pruning away all less than ideal fruit, we enjoyed a harvest of beautiful clusters loaded with elegant, enticing flavor.
Wine Advocate Review:
Very deep purple-black in color, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select comes bounding out of the glass with gregarious scents of crème de cassis, warm black cherries, plum preserves and Indian spices with hints of lilacs, garrigue, stewed tea and cigar box plus a waft of charcuterie. Full-bodied, rich, boldly fruited and wildly decadent, it has a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and compelling freshness, finishing with loads of earthy and savory layers. Anticipated Maturity: 2021-2050
