Item Description
Appearance exhibits a deep ruby hue. Aromas are layered with berry and flavors of cherry, cassis and plum. There is a core minerality with lavender tones. The oak is well integrated and has nice toast aroma with hints of vanilla and wild sage. On the palate the wine is lush and firm but also has mature tannins and supple texture. This wine can be enjoyed now and will age for 10 years. 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.
90 points Wine Advocate - "The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Yao Ming exhibits a beautiful bouquet of graphite, blueberries and blackberries, rich, opulent flavors, impressive purity, and a long, elegant finish. This lovely Cabernet Sauvignon represents a synthesis in style between a top-class French Bordeaux and the beautiful lightness and generosity of a Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink it over the next 10-15+ years." - eRobertParker.com #215 October 2014
One bottle of this exciting wine!
