The new vintage of Viuda Negra (literally, “black widow”) is a third each Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. For a red wine it is a real fruitbowl of unusual flavors—peaches, cranberries, cherries soaked in rum. Round and full, quite delicious and yet focused into a finish with persistent, ageworthy tannins, this will be hard to keep in the cellar, but well worth it if you do. ——P.G.(5/1/2011)—— 93
