2005 PELLA Cabernet Sauvignon

$150.00
Limited Availability

Four barrels were handcrafted in 2005 from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from Star Vineyard, Rutherford, Napa Valley. 100% French Oak.

The 2005 PELLA has aromas of sweet frankincense and cloves. The color is deep blackberry with a bright maroon edge. The wine is well-structured with a citrusy life, nuanced flavors, and a lingering, creamy finish. Elegant flavors of juicy blackberry, lime, and ginger are followed by vanilla, toffee, black licorice, menthol, and pecan.

Time has introduced resinous and savory flavors to the wine that are in balance with the bright fruit. A very harmonious wine with a silken texture. We are digging deep into our library and offering our last three cases for sale.

750 ml. ALC 14.5%.

We recommend using a business delivery address to receive wine shipments, as we are required by law to have an adult (over age 21) signature for wine deliveries. UPS will make 3 delivery attempts, and the customer will then be billed $24.00, in addition to return shipping costs.

A note on corks and decanting in older wines:  We recommend using a dual-pronged Ah-So opener to gently, patiently finesse the cork. Gentleness is key, and individual corks vary, some prone to crumbling, others firm and easy to extract. If a cork crumbles or is pushed into the wine bottle, as sometimes occurs, we recommend decanting with a sieve. Decanting will only enhance the nuanced flavors of a mature wine.  Finally, shipping can disturb sediment in older wines, so some rare wine collectors recommend cellaring & allowing sediment to settle to the bottom before enjoying.

—Cheers! Kristof & Jennifer
