Lot 143 Details
DIAMOND CREEK CABERNET SAUVIGNON VOLCANIC HILL 2008

Napa Valley.
1 x scuffed label.

Diamond Creek’s 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Volcanic Hill is a bit more open than the Red Rock Terrace. The blue and black-hued fruit is deep, rich and enveloping, while firm, focused tannins provide the backdrop. The Volcanic Hill has power to burn. With time in the glass, hints of smoke, crushed rocks and tar come to life, adding even more intensity and grip. The Volcanic Hill is always likely to be bombastic, but it is also compelling. Anticipated maturity: 2023-2048. WA 94+

5 bts.    per lot $1,200 - $1,400

Realised: $1,680
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
