Palazzo Proprietary Red Reserve 2016 750ml

95 points Wine Advocate

A blend of 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Red Blend Right Bank Reserve comes sashaying out of the glass with the most gorgeous perfume of potpourri, Black Forest cake, forest floor, Ceylon tea and eucalyptus with a core of kirsch, plum preserves and spice cake plus a waft of unsmoked cigars. Medium to full-bodied, vibrantly perfumed and possessing a wonderfully plush texture, it has bags of poise and purity coming through on the finish.
