exotic tea

charcoal and wild herbs

trying to take the best from both worlds

A markedly floral-suffused nose displays additional aromas of spicy essence of red cherry

Moderate wood and menthol scents suffuse the similar aromas of plum

Cliff Lede, Poetry Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage:2015 exotic teaThe 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Poetry is sensual, powerful and totally alluring. Dark blue fruits, espresso, incense and licorice are beautifully woven together. Poetry is not quite as bombastic as the other two 2015s I tasted for this report, but it's still a pretty heady wine. It has also aged spectacularly well. All the elements are so well balanced.
