"Extreem Measures Produce Extraordinary Results"
Casima
- Zanzibar Cellars
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese from Yakima valley vineyards, it is marked by a ripe body and a polished finish. The wine undergoes extended maceration to yield a big fleshy wine yet with a racy finish that can benefit from additional cellaring. It is aged in 100% new French Oak for 12 months and 12 months in bottle prior to release.
91 Points -Wine Spectator 2005 Casima
"Rich and aromatic, bursting with sandalwood and
mocha-accented blueberry and cherry flavors, nicely
wrapped in fine, crisp tannins. The fruit lingers
beautifully on the long finish. Cabernet Sauvignon,
Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese. Best from 2008 through
2013."
