2012 CALLUNA "CVC" PROPRIETARY BLEND, CHALK HILL AVA From Wine & Spirits Magazine, "...This merlot-based blend includes cabernet sauvignon, franc, petit verdot and malbec; in 2012, the wine's flavors are vigorous and cohesive, with hints of black plum and mint, though the overall impression is primarily mineral, the refreshing glints of fruit completely tied to the structure. It evolves slowly over several days of air, barely loosening, suggesting that it will reward a long stay in the cellar." 95 POINTS
