<プライド・マウンテン・ヴィンヤード>
Pride Mountain Reserve Claret 2005 この蔵はナパとソノマの境界に所在するようです。 1991年まではモンダビのカベルネ・ソーヴィヨン・リザーブまぶどうを供給して いた畑です。 現在はこのクラレツト・リザーブとカベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン・リザーブはメー リングリストでしか買えないワインです。 パーカーさんがハイポイントをつける常連の蔵で、楽天などで価格を検索すると お分かりになりますが、すごい価格です。 この2005年は93-96/100です。 Wine
Advocate Review Rated 93-96 From the barrel, the gorgeous 2005 Reserve
Claret should turn out to be a top-notch example of Pride Mountain
winemaking. It possesses a deep ruby/purple color as well as notes of black
raspberries, espresso, sweet cherries, and notions of cedar as well as
graphite. Full-bodied with strong tannins, a velvety texture, a voluptuous,
long mouthfeel, and a 45+ second finish, this gorgeous 2005 should age for 15
or more years.
Wine Tasting Notes Plum jam, strawberry, kirsh,
cocoa and maple syrup candy flavors present a beguiling introduction to a
multi-dimensional wine that is both playful and serious. Silky and voluptuous
up front, round through the mid-palate, and powerful in the finish, this wine
is our classic blend of 2/3 expressive Lower Mountain Top Clone 3 Merlot
balanced with 1/3 of our resolute Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon blend. The 2005
vintage presented us with near ideal growing conditions for our
dense, mountain-top style. The Reserve Claret is quite approachable in
its youth, but bold enough to cellar for 15 years.
