2003 Miradero-Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot Blend-Sonoma County (1 750ml Bottle) -- Charles Creek Winery Shopping Cart
2003 Miradero-Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot Blend-Sonoma County (1 Bottle)
This classic Bordeaux style blend combines the best of both old world and new. With a hefty 36% Merlot component, Miradero owes as much to the traditions and heritage of the Right Bank, such as St. Emilion, as it does to the more Cabernet-centric Left Bank but the rich black fruit and ripe, plush tannins speak of the climate and terroir of Sonoma.
The wine opens invitingly with a deep ruby color and aromas of summer blackberries with hints of vanillin and dark roasted espresso beans. Ample body in the mouth is supported by fine-grained, well integrated tannins while the flavors follow through with a dark fruit, black cherry and berry theme accented by notes of bittersweet cocoa and sweet spice and a long, lingering, harmonious finish. Or, to couch it in layman’s terms, “it’s kinda delicious”.
While the fruit-forward ripeness and well-filled texture of this wine might lead to enjoyment this very evening, the richness and refined tannin structure would allow an additional 5-7 years of evolution in the cellar.
Lamb loin chops or beef filet would pair wonderfully with the 2003 Miradero; a rich Bordelaise sauce or a touch of bleu cheese compound butter might just kick it up a few notches.
