Description

Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Old Sparky
Magnum (3)

Wines from the personal cellar of Frederick H. Schrader, from impeccable temperature and humidity controlled storage.

"Another candidate for perfection, the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Old Sparky comes from Clone 4, Clone 6 and Clone 337 although Clone 6 dominates the blend. Also a monumental wine, it is not as nuanced as the CCS or the RBS, but it possesses serious minerality as well as huge notes of tobacco leaf, pain grille, spring flowers, blueberries, blackberries, and licorice in both the aromatic and flavor profiles. The finish is endless in this super-intense, rich wine. Like all these wines, it is a 25- to 40-year effort although the sweetness of the tannin and the emerging complexity permits enjoyment even at this infantile stage." (100 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Dec. 2010)
