Another wine that?s quite possibly the best vintage to date, the 2012 Solesce is a sensational blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 11% Petit Verdot, 7% Malbec and the balance Cabernet Franc. Aged 28 months in 50% new French oak, this ripe, full-bodied, beautifully textured and balanced red offers complex notes of currants, olive, leafy herbs, loamy earth and hints of game. Like all of Brian?s 2012s, it has a level of purity and texture that I haven?t found in his wines in the past. This straight up terrific Bordeaux blend will keep for two decades or more.
