Lot #683. Altamura Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 96 WS.
"A profound effort, offering wonderful purity of flavor, with tiers of anise and black licorice, generous yet structured and elegant. This shows both power and finesse, ending with a wonderful burst of dark berry fruit . . . . Altamura comes from one of the least-known corners of Napa, a small, remote area called Wooden Valley. Northeast of the city of Napa, this area is distinguished by a dramatic fog bank and cooler climate, and subsequently a longer growing season; temperatures here can be as many as 10 degrees lower than the Napa Valley average. Frank and Karen Altamura started planting grapes on their 400-acre family ranch in 1985. [2010 WS Top 100: Rank 5]" Wine Spectator, Nov 15, 2010
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $100
