L'Aventure Estate Cuvee 2004 Central Coast "There are 1,000 cases of the blockbuster 2004 Estate Cuvee. It reminded me of the 2005 L'Evangile ... on steroids. A dense inky/purple color, great fruit purity, and abundant aromas of acacia flowers, blackberries, cassis, and blueberries are found in this beauty along with a seamless integration of tannin, acidity, and wood, and a finish that lasts over 60 seconds. The result is a profound wine that must be tasted to be believed. This is a brilliant wine from a Frenchman who has captured the magic of Paso Robles." R. Parker, 98 pts. 08/06 6 bottles (owc)
