2008 Wallis Family Estate Diamond Mountain District Little Sister Red Wine
Little Sister
Robert Parker (12/2010)
“The 2008 Little Sister Proprietary Red exhibits a perfumed nose of forest floor, red and black fruits and a touch of mossy underbrush. Medium to full-bodied and elegant with silky sweet tannins and a judicious touch of oak, this restrained yet interesting wine should drink well for at least a decade. 89
A new discovery for me, these two reds are both impressive efforts made in an elegant, fresh, lively style with plenty of depth and richness.”
The Wine Enthusiast Magazine October 2011
“Dry and smooth as a fine old Scotch, with intricately woven blackberry, black currant, green olive and herb flavors leading to a long, spicy finish. The tannins are significant, but very finely ground. Classy and powerful, this Cabernet should develop over the next eight years.” - S.H. 92
