Cabernet Sauvignon Monsieur Etain 2017 Scarecrow

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (93)

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot, the 2017 M. Étain is deep garnet-purple colored and prances out of the glass with exuberant baked cherries, warm mulberries, plum pudding and crème de cassis notes with touches of Provence herbs, tilled soil and pencil lead plus wafts of spice box and potpourri. Full-bodied, firm and earthy in the mouth, the palate has bags of freshness and a firm structure with loads of spicy nuances on the finish.

James Suckling (93)

Well-rendered, featuring a range of ripe yet sleek flavors of cassis, loganberry and boysenberry that won't quit, all while licorice snap and graphite details run underneath. Not shy, but has the energy to support all the elements. Will need a bit of cellaring to fully round into form. A big, gutsy Cabernet.
