The 2002 Don Maximiano Founders
Reserve displays inviting aromas of
blackberry, black cherry, dried
cherry, and boysenberry, with spicy
accents and a touch of mint. The
ageing in new French oak is evident
in a pure, clean vanilla bean
character that is beautifully
integrated with the ripe fruit
characters. Undertones of toast and
chocolate round out the aromatic
profile. The wine is expansive on
the palate. Ripe, powerful tannins
provide excellent structure and a
long, smooth finish. As it ages in
the bottle, the wine is developing
nice secondary bottle bouquet
aromas. It should continue to
improve in the bottle for at least
ten years.
