Gallica Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville 2012

Product description

Cabernet Franc from this rocky site graces the blend with silky tannins, but it’s the floral notes that are so appealing. Aromatically explosive, layers of dark cherry, mandarin peel, savory dried herbs wrapped in the warmth of subtle oak, make this bottling worthy of aging yet approachable today.

95 Points - James Suckling

I love the purity of fruit in this red with dark berry, raspberry and fresh mint character. Full body, firm and silky tannins and a long, stylish finish. Very impressive for the vintage. Drink or hold. Best ever from here.

94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Far superior to the 2011 is the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon from an Oakville source. It offers notes of baking spices, cedarwood, forest floor, blackcurrants and toasty barrique.
