“La Muse 2013, like all 2013 vintages, is made up of one-third Alexander Valley, 40% Chalk Hill, and the rest from Knights Valley and Bennett Valley—all high-altitude vineyards. A blend of 89% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Malbec with 14.3% alcohol, the wine is strikingly similar to a superb vintage of Pétrus, with notes of blackberry, black cherry, licorice, and truffle, along with a rich, thick, and juicy fruitiness—all within this full-bodied masterpiece. The tannins are still present. The wine is pure and remarkable, with a savory presence . The finish lasts well over a minute.” (Wine Advocate 2015 – Robert Parker) Delivered in a wooden case for any order of 6 bottles of this wine
