Fetzer Cabernet Sauvignon Barrel Select Barrique Aged 1997

North Coast Region, California, United StatesFetzer Barrel Select Cabernet Sauvignon is created from what winemaker John White loves to call a compilation of his "greatest vineyards." The '97 barrel select is a complex blend of 40 per cent Napa, 50 per cent Sonoma and 10 per cent Mendocino fruit. I love the big juicy fruit style here and the rich black currant flavours. The finished wine was then aged in small one two and three year old French oak barrels. Good value.Tasted: 01 March 2000Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
