2012 Wallis Little Sister Cabernet Sauvignon
Wine Advocate by Robert Parker
90 Points
The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Little Sister exhibits attractive crème de cassis notes, impressive purity, a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and a nicely textured finish. There is not a hard edge to be found in this luscious, fruit-forward red. Enjoy it over the next 8-10 years.

Complex and compelling in dark plum and dusty dark chocolate, this Cabernet has under 3% Petit Verdot and under 3% Cabernet Franc blended in, providing the wine with elegance and concentration. Soft on the palate, it suggests vanilla oak with subtlety, bringing all the components together on the lingering finish.

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is more backward than the Little Sister, with more tannic structure as well as abundant cremede cassis, blackberry, unsmoked cigar tobacco and forest floor characteristics. This impressive, structured, full-bodied wine will benefit from several years of bottle age and should drink well for 12-15 years thereafter.

A 100% Cabernet Sauvignon given two years in French oak, this sanguine, expertly structured and elegant wine offers plenty of bright cassis and blackberry flavor on the palate, seducing with complex layers of dried herb and black tea. Enjoyable now, this wine will also benefit from time; hold through 2022.

The blockbuster 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Seraphim reveals finesse and elegance as well as substance and concentration. The dense purple color is followed by blueberry, blackberry and cassis fruit, stunning richness and a long finish with well-integrated tannin, wood and acidity. Enjoy this profound Cabernet over the next 15-20 years.
