L'Aventure : Estate Cuvée 2009

A delicious blend of Cabernet, Syrah and Petit Verdot the 2009 Estate Cuvée from L'Aventure in Paso robles, California is a deep wine on a multitude of levels. With a distinct dark purple finish, accented by a dark ebony core, the color of this wine only begins to hint at the bold flavors it offers. The first taste opens with bold notes of licorice, cola and sweet yet tart wild blackberries. Then there is Cassis, followed by black cherry and rich leather, and the omnipresent blueberry. The bold attack on your tastebuds is truly magical, with its silky and opulent texture. With spicy hints of graphite, acacia and cardamom the 2009 L'Aventure Estate Cuvée also embraces its fruity origins to form the ideal balance for drinking over years to come.
