Kilikanoon Cabernet 1997 --RP 88 750ml
| The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon (aged 15 months in one-third new French barriques) requires another year of bottle age. The saturated dark ruby purple color is followed by a clean, structured wine with a youthful tobacco leaf and black currant-scented nose that will likely develop a more cedary character with cellaring. In the mouth, it is zesty and youthful, with lively fruit, nicely integrated new oak, adequate acidity, and a long, restrained finish. Stylish yet rich, it should be drunk between 2000-2010. --Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, April 1999. | |
