Medium BodiedThe Wine Advocate 89 pts - Robert ParkerRobert Craig's 2008 Affinity, which is a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, and the rest Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec, has a dark plum/ruby color, a very evolved and forward nose of spice box, cedar, black plums, and sweet cherries. It is medium-bodied, elegant, and ideal for drinking over the next 7-8 years.
Description:Aroma: Open, inviting perfume of dark black fruit blossoms in the glass, underlain with sweet cassis and lovely touches of blueberry, violets, roasted coffee and spicy oak.
Flavors: An abundance of rich, deep black and blue fruit wraps around a core of polished tannins, intermixed with black currant, dark cocoa and spice.
Finish: A continuum of luscious flavors carries forward through the generous finish, enlivened by crisp acidity and mineral notes.
