Anderson's Conn Valley Vineyards Right Bank Proprietary Red Blend 2005
Bordeaux Red Blends
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
"Their Napa Valley Cheval Blanc look-alike is called Right Bank, usually a blend of two-thirds Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc, although it can change somewhat depending on the vintage. This is a thrilling wine that comes as close as just about any wine in Napa to mimicking a great Right Bank Bordeaux.
The 2005 Right Bank (70% Merlot, and 30% Cabernet Franc) is sensational as well. Exhibiting a deep ruby/purple color and notes of blueberry, blackberry, smoked game, cedar, licorice, and some camphor and leather, the wine is complex, fleshy, full-bodied, and a total hedonistic turn-on. Drink it over the next 15 or more years."
