Think of Cuvee L as super-charged Lewis Reserve Cabernet. Red wine at red-line. First created from the spectacular 1997 vintage, the single best barrels from our finest lots fuel this rare wine. Cuvee L is not produced every year. It is only blended when we have the components to create a wine of greater intensity, depth and distinction than our Reserve Cabernet.
Garaged in a beautiful lacquered wood 3-bottle box, we are proud to present our tire-smoking, high compression Cuvee L from 2005. The chassis is constructed from low yield, concentrated hillside clusters of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc aged in 100% new French oak. Toasty, smoky oak spices, chocolate, clove and caramel aromas jump off the line. Racy black currant and Turkish coffee flavors are smooth on the track, with super-wide tannins providing tenacious grip through the twisties. Great mileage too!
