It has a lovely balance and structure and will be particularly impressive with food. One of the best yet. Abundant vibrant cabernet and merlot with stacks of rich dark fleshy flavors. The nose is all black berries with savory notes showing traces of black olive and dark chocolate. A little touch of leafy cedar completes the wine." - Ray Jordan
