Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Solari Reserve unfurls slowly in the glass to reveal youthful crushed black plums and blackberries on the nose with an undercurrent of menthol, dried herbs, forest floor, cassis and cedar chest plus a touch of roses. The big, rich, full-bodied palate delivers layer upon layer of black fruit preserves and savory flavors with a firm yet seductively velvety texture and just enough freshness, finishing very long and wonderfully decadent.
