Palazzo Left Bank Red Cuvee 2019

Fantastic fruit of black-cherry and boysenberry with wonderful body & depth.

The 2019 Left Bank Red Cuvée is 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% each Cabernet Franc and Merlot, all aged 20 months in 60% new French oak. Gentle herb nuances bump up against cherries and raspberries on the nose, while the medium-bodied palate is suave and supple, ending in a wash of soft, powdery tannins.
James Suckling: 92
Aromas of fresh herbs, redcurrants and red licorice. Full-bodied with silky tannins and vibrant acidity. Fresh and clear on the palate, with steady balance and a generous finish. 50% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot and 25% cabernet franc. Drink or hold.

More red and black fruits, dried flowers, orange tea, and spicy oak notes emerge from the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Left Bank Master Blend, a mix of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% each of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It’s elegant, has fine tannins, medium to full body, and a great finish. It might even improve with 2-3 years of bottle age.
