2012 CLOS DE LOS SIETE "PROPRIETARY BLEND" BY MICHEL ROLLAND From Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, "Bright red-ruby. Aromas and flavors of blackberry, cassis, blackcherry and dark chocolate. Dense, creamy and sweet, conveying an impression of elegance for all its volume. A very sweet, spicy blend with harmonious tannins and noteworthy length. Year after year, this wine from Michel Rolland is a terrific value." 91 Points From James Suckling, "A red with plenty of ripe fruit and hints of shaved chocolate and walnut character. Full body, velvety tannins and a clean, fresh finish. Drink now." 91 Points From Wine Enthusiast, "Blueberry and cardamom aromas rank as exotic and attractive. This has a rich, jammy, deep body that’s easy on the palate. Flavors of blackberry, caramel and chocolate are rich and ripe, as is the finish, which has a meaty texture and a touch of youthful heat." 90 Points From Jancis Robinson, "Silver medal winner...Dark purple. Clean, fresh nose is very direct. Confident and complete. No rough edges. Very well done. Ripe start and then just the right amount of acid and tannin."
