Below is the November, 2008 Featured Wine for the Wines by Jennifer Cellar Club:



2004 Michel-Schlumberger

Cabernet Sauvignon

Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, California

 

2004 Michel-Schlumberger Cabernet SauvignonThe special growing conditions of Dry Creek Valley give its wines a character of elegance. The relatively cool growing season nourishes a distinctive balance in the Valley's grapes, ripening them slowly and evenly.

Michel-Schlumberger's rolling benches buttress Wine Creek Canyon's northern hillsides, and generally slope south, an exposure that gives them a full day's worth of sun.

Like all of their wines, this M-S Cabernet Sauvignon comes from all estate, organically farmed fruit. It displays layers of spice-driven fruit - allspice, nutmeg, clove, raspberry, and plum all make an appearance in the forefront of this wine. These all roll into the viscous middle that showcases the verve this one barely contains. It finishes with a distinct, well-steeped tea quality that implies age worthiness and class.

The blend is 80% Cab Sav, 10% Cab Franc, 4% Merlot, 5% Malbec, and 1% Carmenere, aged 16 months in French oak.
