Tasting notes
The 2004 Legacy Proprietary Red, a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot and the rest equal parts Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, performed brilliantly. It is dense purple, with notes of graphite, black currant, vanilla and spring flowers. The wine shows earthy minerality, full-bodied power, and impressive ripeness in a youthful, vigorous mountain-styled Cabernet. Drink it over the next 15 years. Tel. (800) 355-8008

(a Bordeaux blend based on 70% cabernet sauvignon) Ruby-red. Cassis, licorice, mocha and cocoa powder on the nose. Deep, bright and sweet, with chewy flavors of black cherry, currant and minerals nicely framed and lifted by firm, juicy acidity. Very ripe but not at all pruney. Finishes rich and long. Offers terrific potential.
