Based on 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot brought up in a mix of new and used oak, it has a deep ruby hue as well as a classic Sloan nose of meaty red and black fruits, iron, roasted herbs, graphite, and licorice. This Pauillac-like full-bodied, concentrated effort has ample mid-palate depth, supple tannins, and a great finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 points Vinous\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe 2021 Asterisk captures all the pedigree of this important vintage. Beams of tannin give the 2021 its spine and a good deal of energy to match. Blackberry, crème de cassis, new leather, incense and chocolate build in the glass. This is a very serious Asterisk. Sloan fans will absolutely adore it. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Misa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45449234972809,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/2820\/8009\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_f6d5a641-ae77-4109-b105-722d520aaaad.jpg?v=1778866570","url":"https:\/\/atlaswineshop.com\/products\/sloan-asterisk-2021","provider":"Atlas Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
