’82 Mayacamas Cabernet Sauvignon

July 1st, 2009 / Filed Under: Aged Wine -Cabernet Sauvignon -California /

Just enjoyed a nice 1982 Mayacamas Cabernet Sauvignon… Freakishly young with plenty of horsepower to carry it for another 5-7 years. Nice brick red color with cranberry, anise and dusty black pepper on the nose. Restrained palate with fine tannins and faint black berry and licorice spice. Seriously elegant. Not my first encounter with Mayacamas. Not my last.
