2003 Grands Amis Première Passion

This 50/50 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Verdot brings out the old world of Lodi. A combination of earth and spice [earth from the Petite Verdot and spice from the Cabernet Sauvignon] is written all over this wine, with a mid-pallet complexity of blackberry, dates and a hint of anise.
The aftertaste is more Cabernet driven - dark chocolate.
Well balanced acidity and the good structure of tannins will make this a keeper and would probably show more potential if you have the patience to keep it. It has been aged for 27 months in 100% French Oak barrels - 50% new and 50% second fill.
Alcohol 14.5%
Total production: 142 cases
