VERKOSTNOTIZ:
Tasting notes Beautiful, deep, dark red color. Rich and spiced on the nose, with very pure aromas and hints of forest floor. On the palate, flavors of truffle, licorice, and black cherry are intimately mixed together. The texture is round and supple of very ripe fruit. It is very long and persistent on the finish, with balanced long-lasting tannins. This wine expresses an elegant, rich, and complex energy. Can age 20–30 yearsVerkostnotiz Parker Robert:
The 2013 La Muse, like all of the 2013s, comes about one-third from Alexander Valley vineyards, 40-plus percent from Chalk Hill, and the rest Knights Valley and Bennett Valley – all high-elevation hillside vineyards. A blend of 89% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 3% Malbec at 14.3% alcohol, the wine is amazingly like a great vintage of Petrus, with mulberry, black cherry, licorice, truffle and unctuous, thick, juicy fruit all present in this full-bodied masterpiece. The tannins are still present. The wine has purity and savory presence and is remarkable. The finish goes on for well past a minute. This wine would probably benefit from 5-8 years of bottle age and last 40-50 years.
Verkostnotiz Suckling James:
Fascinating aromas of blackberries and orange peel with dried flowers. Full-bodied and very structured. Superb density and length. Just starting to open up now. Fantastic merlot.
