What to Expect

Cabenet Sauvignon: Originally of French origins, this versatile grape produces exceptional wines around the globe. It's usually medium to full bodied with a fine structure that supports black and red fruit flavors with typical notes of olive, chili and herbs that add complexity.

Winemakers Notes

Dark, almost brooding, black fruits. Pure, elegant, with a cool, smooth integration of structure in the palate. Soft ripe tannins, and low acidity. This is surprisingly forward and approachable. Good, but I have had better vintages.

Reviews

Wine.com

Very intense ruby red color. Intense and complex bouquet of red and blackberries, cassis and plums, mixed with spicy and oaky notes. The wood is discreet and well integrated, respecting the purity of the fruit. In the mouth, this full bodied wine combines elegance and strength with spicy and sweet fruity characters, great balance and long finish.
