Wine of the Month

Poaletti "Bella Novella" 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Winemaker Notes: Dense garnet-to-black hue. Uplifting aromas of blackberry, mint and smoke. Refined yet intense with lasting red raspberry and black cherry flavors. Supple tannhis and balanced acidity. This is a voluptuous wine accessible now and fine cellar candidate. This is truly a sleeper of a great 97 Vintage. Available by a glass or bottle, this is a great Cabernet at a reasonable price considering the skyrocketing cost of California wine. Drink now through 2005!
