Colgin Cariad 2009, crafted by Colgin Cellars in Napa Valley, is a luxurious Bordeaux-style blend, primarily Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, sourced from select vineyards. The 2009 vintage offers a bouquet of blackberry, cassis, and plum, with layers of graphite, spice, and earthy minerality. The palate is rich and concentrated, with polished tannins and vibrant acidity that frame the fruit. Notes of mocha, leather, and herbs add depth, while the finish is long and refined, with great aging potential. Colgin’s artisanal winemaking, including hand-harvesting and French oak aging, ensures a wine of precision and elegance. Perfect for pairing with grilled ribeye or aged cheeses, this Cariad is a collector’s treasure, reflecting Napa’s premier terroirs and offering a sophisticated drinking experience for enthusiasts seeking a world-class blend.
