Corison Cabernet Sauvignon St. Helena

California

St. Helena

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon needs a little shaking to bring out the notes of fresh blackcurrants, raspberries, and kirsch, followed by hints of spearmint, charcoal, and bay leaves. The medium-bodied palate is vibrant and intense with fresh red and black berry layers and a grainy texture, finishing with a burst of freshness and an herbal lift.

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon springs from the glass with vibrant notes of black raspberry, redcurrant jelly, and black cherry plus hints of dried herbs, pencil lead, and black olives. The medium-bodied palate is bright, lively, and refreshing, with soft tannins and a fragrant lift to the finish. This is nicely done!

Corison evner å balansere amerikansk cabernet som få andre. Vinen har struktur, dyp blå frukt og fylde, men samtidig eleganse og en flott saftighet som gjør den lettdrikkelig. 2018 viser ingen tegn på aldring enda, men drikkes bra nå.

Solbær, bjørnebær, plomme, blyantkvess, blomster i retning fioler, jordlig mineralitet og kanel på en nese som er like intellektuell og kompleks som den er hedonistisk og livsbejaende. Nydelig silkete struktur og friskhet fra anslag. Dyp konsentrasjon, god tøyling av alkohol og en helt eventyrlig lengde. Dette er Napa Cab som er så uendelig mye bedre enn «big&bold»-stilen der det kan virke som om det er om  å vise mest mulig ekstraksjon, overmodenhet og eik. En nydelig vin som kommer til å lagre bra!

Smooth..Mørke bær og krydder. Fyldig og saftig. Ettersmaken varer lenge lenge. Denne likte jeg godt! 

Medium to deep garnet in color with a touch of brick, Corison's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon needs a little shaking to wake up delicate scents of dried mulberries and cherries, leading to an undercurrent of iron ore, bay leaves, and lavender oil. The medium-bodied palate is packed with energetic red and black berry flavors, supported by grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing long and minerally. Beautiful!

Deep garnet-brick colored, the 2000 Corison Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon delivers notes of fruit cake, prunes, and dried herbs with hints of crushed rocks, balsamic, leather, and tobacco. Medium-bodied, the palate is elegantly styled and refreshing, with a chewy texture supporting the savory layers, finishing on a lingering note of exotic spices. Still delicious, this wine is now at its peak and needs drinking up. The fruit comes entirely from Morisoli Vineyard in Rutherford.
