Cardinale Red Meritage 2001
Bordeaux Red Blends
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
Cardinale established itself to be in the midst of a handful of the most consistently exceptional red wines in the world. It is an intricate composition of superlative vineyard sites with stand-alone excellence. Definitely Cabernet Sauvignon, predominately from the Napa Valley, wine comes from three mountain estate vineyards on Mount Veeder, Howell Mountain and Alexander Mountain. Cardinale provides a powerful sensory experience rich in complex aromas, layered flavors and seamless texture. In the words of Robert Parker Jr.'s, The Wine Advocate, Cardinale "is one of the profound wines being produced in northern California."

A Customer - Los angeles
After living and working for 12 years in France, I moved back to Los Angeles 2 months ago. One evening one of my friends served this wine for dinner. From the begining it reminded me the perfect Bordeaux, the taste was very smooth, you could almost taste the oak on your palette, and that special smooth fruity taste that makes you savour the small sips in your mouth. You cannot go wrong with a wine like this.
