Elsa Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

San Rafael, General Alvear, Southern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThe 370-acre Doña Elsa Vineyard located in San Rafael is now 17 years old and the fruit coming off the site is impressive. The Elsa wines as this cabernet demonstrates represent a new generation of wines from Valentin Bianchi that have benefited form some California winemaking prowess led by Robert Pepi Jr. Rich peppery fruit with soft-ish supple edges and fine length make this a very tasty red wine.Tasted: 16 September 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
