Estimate
This is a solid cabernet from Pritchard Hill with lots of blackberries, fresh herbs and conifer and crushed-stone undertones. Full body, juicy tannins and a long and flavorful finish.
...expressive crème de cassis, blueberry pie and Black Forest cake scents plus hints of bay leaves, cloves, underbrush and allspice. Medium to full-bodied, it has a firm, grainy frame and oodles of freshness supporting the elegant layers, finishing long and spicy.
...plenty of black cherry and graphite aromas, full body, and silky tannins, it’s another terrific wine from Hoefliger, but this one is going to require some patience.
...emerges from one of the best-known sites on Pritchard Hill. Powerful and savory in the glass, the Artalade has a lot to offer...
