Stonestreet Cabernet Sauvignon 2000

Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesBig spicy, tarry, peppery, tobacco, leather, blackberry jam aromas with black olive, herbal notes. Dry, somewhat lean entry but lacks a bit of mid palate concentration. Very dry tannins with vanilla, cassis, peppery, spicy, licorice flavours and a bit of coffee, smoky olive on the finish. Pretty tough and lean now and reminds us a bit of Barolo. It will need five years to round out but we are not sure the fruit will make it.Tasted: 17 January 2004Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
