Galante 2011 Rancho Galante Estate Bottled Red (Carmel Valley)

Country: US / Rancho Galante Estate Bottled
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Galante / Carmel Valley

Wood aromas of cedar are expertly spliced with purple fruits on this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petite Sirah and Merlot. A touch of greenness on the palate gives those deep purple fruits some depth, but the tannins are quite gripping, and should release more with time. Drink 2018 onward.
