Lokoya, Diamond Mountain, Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1997
Napa Valley
Lot 661: stained labels
"The most opulent, sexy, and immediately charming of this admirable quartet of 1997 Lokoya Cabernets is the 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain (1,100 cases). It exhibits a saturated purple color in addition to an explosive nose of licorice, cedar, roasted herbs, and black plums and currants. Full-bodied, with a voluptuous texture, low acidity, and heady alcohol, this offering possesses considerable tannin, but it is beautifully submerged by the wine's depth of extract and high glycerin. Impressive, with a flamboyant personality, this 1997 should drink well for 18-20 years." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Issue 132, 12/23/00
