Claret

2004 Cliff Lede Claret
Napa Valley

This fruit forward and friendly wine is brimming with violets, blueberries, ripe plum, and blackcurrant. Initial aromas of star jasmine, red and black currants, and wild strawberry are framed in the glass by a wealth of uplifting floral high notes, with just a hint of cherry and citrus. On the palate one is greeted with pie cherry, blueberry tart, and lots of kir. This mouth-pleasing entry quickly expands into fullness across the palate suffused with crème de cassis of some density, gradually relegating to a soft finish of plum and a gentle tannin complex.

Excellent Wine! Drink Now! I had a bottle (by myself) with a tasty Ribeye steak marinated in a Gormans Bloody Mary Sauce. This wine has great fruit and medium tannin's. And morning after headache "minimium" and well worth it. Enjoy!
