Light and crisp, with spice-tinged pear and citrus notes, revealing touches of melon and lime on the finish. (Web-2013)
Made from Leopoldina (72%), Fortuna (14%) and Amoenus (14%) fruit, the brilliant 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Black Label offers a heavenly display of spring flowers interwoven with blueberry, blackberry and cassis fruit and subtle wood, licorice and lavender in the background. This full-bodied, rich, beautifully pure, textured and complex wine needs another 4-5 years of cellaring, but it should keep for 25-30 years. -
There is an immediacy of pleasure with this wine. There is a voluptuous and pleasantly wide mid-palate weight with the wine. Showing beautiful balance and nice acidity, there is prominent red and dark fruit with supple tannins and an impressive freshness and length. There is a quiet structure surrounding the fruit and agradual texture that carries through the finish. Blend: 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot, 1% Merlot
The inaugural bottling of Turnbull Wine Cellars' new signature reflection on the world-renowned Oakville Appellation. Incredible aromatics. Powerful yet graceful, dusted summer blackberries and crème de cassis. Delicate fine-tuned French oak strikes a perfect balance, creating the counter-point to the astounding density of dark and lifted red fruit. The tannins are silky, rich and smooth, detailing the amazing singularity of the terrior of Oakville. A stunning start to a new legacy.
