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.

Editorial Reviews

Smoky and hugely aromatic on the nose with deep liquory red fruits, herb, earth, leather and hints of American oak all layered and well integrated.
This remains luxurious in the mouth with rich wild berry and red cherry fruit. It’s a touch simple but powerful with a wonderful intensity and freshness. Firmly at peak and a wonderfully enjoyable bottle. 93pts
