“With very little rainfall in 2009, coming into the third year of a drought cycle, yields for their Elivette Cabernet were down almost 130 tons, as compared to normal yields. The result, produced by Jac Cole, offers fabulously fresh and enticing aromas of dried violets, herbs, and black currants.”
“One sip is all it takes to fall in love with this wine. It's soft, gentle and enormously rich, with a velvety mouthfeel. Blended from all five classic Bordeaux varieties, it shows luxurious blackberry jam, cherry pie, red licorice, cocoa, cinnamon spice and sweet-smoky sandalwood flavors.”
