A touch of dried blueberry rounds out the fruit profile. Floral notes and cocoa, with nuances of cedar and spice, are sprinkled throughout. All of these characters follow through on the palate and, with a pleasant minerality and continuity, weave a tapestry of complexity and youthful exuberance. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 11.9999990463257px;\"\u003e\r\n\t \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"color:#000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:14px;\"\u003eThis wine is pulled from vineyards across the Columbia Valley, including Heather Hill, Bacchus, Dionysus, Ciel du Cheval and Destiny Ridge. A nuanced wine, it shows winemaker John Abbott in top form with its rich, layered fruit flavors, dazzling sense of texture and lengthy finish. It’s drinking beautifully but promises to have a long life in front of it in the cellar.\u003cstrong\u003e 93 Points Wine Enthusiast\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"color:#000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:14px;\"\u003e\"60% new French oak; a blend from multiple vineyard sources. Bright ruby-red. Complex aromas of blueberry, blackberry, bitter chocolate, leather, licorice and violet reminded me a bit of top Mendoza Malbec. Suave and seamless in the mouth, with insinuating dark berry, licorice and spice flavors filling the mouth without showing any heaviness. Finishes dry and long, with fully integrated tannins. This fine-grained Cabernet is deceptively approachable now but should age gracefully. - Stephen Tanzer\" \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e- Vinous (November 2015), 92 pts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abeja","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948833697839,"sku":"W0EE818034CSM","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/abejac.jpg?v=1771484385","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/abeja-cabernet-sauvignon-columbia-valley-2012","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
