"Lail’s 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon John Daniel Cuvee bursts from the glass with explosive fruit, firm tannins and deeply pitched spice notes. This is another wine endowed with gorgeous balance and tons of personality, but it needs time to settle down. Blueberry jam, cloves, mint and licorice are some of the nuances that flesh out on a rich, saline-infused finish supported by firm, insistent tannins. With time in the glass, the 2010 gets better and better. The 2010 was made from a blend of fruit from Heimark and Vine Hill Ranch. The wine spent 19 months in French oak barrels, 78% new." (Antonio Galloni)

Winemaker's Notes:
"The 2010 J. Daniel Cuvee has a nose that kicks off with unbelievably dark tones of cacao, blackberry and rich leather laced with red current. After letting the wine breathe the finer aromatic nuances begin to emerge with tones of fresh cut violets and cardamom. The attack is soft and nicely layered with ample body. The grape and oak tannins have married well to bring a fine grained pliable texture to the mid palate as well as considerable weight and density. It's finish is round and lengthy that follows through with pleasant friendly tannins that will bring you back for another glass."
