Spectacular 2007s...

Available online also
2007 Buccella Cabernet Sauvignon....$118.99 net

"The blockbuster 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon is more primary, but it does display enormous fruit concentration, massive body, and wonderful purity, balance, and elegance. It is an extraordinarily promising 2007 with awesome fruit, depth and richness as well as a long finish. This offering will be even better with 5-7 years of bottle age, and should keep for 20+ years.

Buccella, under the guidance of well-known winemaking consultant Celia Masyczek has fashioned brilliant Cabernet Sauvignons in both 2006 and 2007. The 2007s are slightly more powerful, backward wines (alcohol levels range from the upper 14% to low 15%), but they have enough structure as well as sensational concentration and depth to support the tannins."

Rated 96/100 The Wine Advocate



2007 Buccella Merlot....$72.99
There are only 330 cases made of this Merlot from the famous Hyde Vineyard. Buccella is the latin word for "mouthful". This Merlot is definitely a mouthful. There is no doubt from tasting this wine that it is the best Merlot made in California. This wine is not rated, but it is easily a 95+ point wine. Do not miss this spectacular 2007.
