2004 Conn Valley Eloge Red Blend Eloge is a Bordeaux-styled red composed of approximately two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon, nearly one-third Cabernet Franc, and tiny dollops of Petit Verdot and Merlot. Made from a similar blend, the 2004 Eloge’s dark ruby/purple color is followed by scents of graphite, camphor, black currants, tapenade, flowers, and spice. Rich, supple, and full-bodied with silky tannin, abundant glycerin, and heady alcohol (listed at 14.8%), it will drink gorgeously well young, and last 10-20 years.Wine Advocate # 168 Dec 2006 This is a California Wine
