Corra Tasting Notes
The 2008 Corra Cabernet Sauvignon aromas offer an impressive array of dark sweet cherry, perfumed boysenberry and ripe blackberry, vanilla, cinnamon bark and sweet anise notes. The aromas are very slightly darker in tone than those of the 2007 vintage, more focused on dark berry and mocha in character. On the palate, the wine dances in an interplay between the light, vivacious fresh purple fruit tones and the undercurrents of mocha, vanilla and caramel, while texturally the wine is consistently full from start to finish. In keeping with Corra's traditional emphasis on texture, the mid-palate and finish show silky, resolved tannins; yet display concentration and crispness with enough enthusiasm to indicate a surety of age-worthiness.

Wine Advocate
Corra Cabernet Sauvignon The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is a big, rich, expansive wine. Layers of blue and black fruit, spices and flowers flow gracefully from this textured, inviting Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2009 possesses an inner glow and warmth that is immensely appealing. An elegant, finessed finish rounds things out beautifully. This is a terrific showing from Celia Welch. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. 93 points
