The holidays call for special wines, which means it’s the perfect time to break out large format bottles. Believing wine is meant to be shared, Mark Neal has hand-selected the following 1.5L bottles which are ideal for your gatherings of 6-8 people. As a guide, 1.5L is the equivalent of two standard 750-ml bottles.
These magnums are aged to perfection and celebration ready!
A look at the 2003 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon: An intoxicating mixture of cherries, black cassis, sweet oak, violet and cigar box spice rises from the glass. Layers of ripe Bing cherries, raspberries and semi-sweet cocoa dominate the mid-palate giving this wine a nice backbone and plenty of structure. The fruit is present with firm tannin and a nice acidity provides a beautiful balance. Brown sugar and a crème brulée induced finish that lingers for more than 30 seconds. Not a flamboyant, in your face type of wine, but rather an elegant, restrained and seductive style to lure you in.
