Description

RP97 Deep garnet in color with a touch of purple, the 2007 Cappella Proprietary Red needs just a little coaxing to begin, but it soon opens out with flamboyant crème de cassis, mocha, smoked game, menthol and underbrush notes with suggestions of Chinese five spice and potpourri. Full-bodied, richly fruited and oh-so-spicy in the mouth, the flavors are just starting to move into tertiary characters, supported by plush yet firm tannins and lovely freshness, finishing with great length.
