2009 Axios Wine Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, USA (750ml)

Product Info

TASTING NOTES:

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is a bit bigger, richer and more voluptuous than the 2010 tasted alongside it. Plums, Christmas cake, menthol and licorice all flesh out in a Cabernet that is especially radiant and supple. Deep sensual and inviting, the 2009 flows through effortlessly to a pliant, inviting finish laced with scents of sweet French oak, vanillin and cloves. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2019.

Lush, soft and delicious, this has flavors of chocolate, ripe crushed summer blackberries and a hint of dried currants. This richness is augmented by lots of smoky, sweet oak. It could develop in the bottle, but the fruit might fall out before the tannins soften.
