Lot #707. Corison Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Score: 95 WSM.
"For over 20 years, Cathy Corison has sourced her Napa cabernet from the same three vineyards, gravelly sites on the western benchland between Rutherford and St. Helena. This offers that area’s distinctly plush and gentle tannins in a Napa Valley cabernet of the old school. It feels formal and reserved, contrasting fresh herbal notes of pipe tobacco and cedar with classic cabernet flavors of red and black currants. Impeccably balanced, this has a scent that’s as compelling as any premier cru Pauillac, with the sunny profile of the Mayacamas benchlands. In other words, it smells pretty great, especially after it’s been open for a day. Built for the cellar, this will provide delicious drinking with roast lamb . . ." Wine & Spirits Magazine, Dec 2013
Provenance: The Florisando Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
