The 2012 Ulysses (800 cases) is 95% Cabernet Sauvignon with the balance Bordeaux varietals. Structured and dense purple in color, displaying cedar, crème de cassis, licorice, and graphite. Full-bodied, rich, and backward yet pure and precise, reminiscent of Pontet-Canet in its balance of density and purity. Forget for 4–5 years, then enjoy over the following 20–25.
