TASTING NOTES:
The 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon Wedding Vineyard (500 cases) displays a knock-out Graves-like nose of sweet, medium to full-bodied, rich, concentrated flavors, good acidity, high tannin, and profound concentration and length. It comes across like a race horse ready to burst from the starting gate. This wine needs 4-5 years of cellaring, and should keep for two or more decades. The Wedding Vineyard cuvee is the flagship Cabernet of the Fisher winery. Made from a vineyard planted in 1974, this wine possesses a striking aromatic profile consisting of cedar, cigar smoke, tobacco, and minerals. In that sense, it resembles California's version of Bordeaux's famed Chateau Haut-Brion or Chateau La Mission-Haut-Brion. This wine can also test the patience of readers, as it is rarely accessible when released, but it does possess 20-30 years of aging potential.
