The mirror image companion to the Ruby Leigh, Sparkman's Stella Mae is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with 21% Merlot and 17% Petit Verdot filling out the blend. Chocolaty, bourbon barrel scents and flavors dominate, though with more bottle age they may fall back into better proportion with the snappy cherry/berry fruit. By any measure this is an ageworthy wine, with polished tannins and seductive barrel flavors.
