It has been a long journey to this point and now the new journey begins. The wine is superior and the economy is abysmal. 200 cases of the 2006 Poem Cellars Marriage are in the marketplace as of the week before Xmas.
The web page isn’t ready for the public just yet, so this is what everyone needs to know. The wine is dominantly Rutherford Bench Cabernet Sauvignon with a bit of Howell Mountain and St Helena Cabernet Franc and maybe half a percentage point of Petit Verdot.
Poem Cellars has three Cabernet Sauvignon labels for your consideration so I will blog about the other two in the coming weeks.
In the mean time you may wish to learn more about the artist that did the labels, Pier Gustafson. Be prepared to spend 15 or 20 minutes enjoying his work.
