Wine Review: This slightly opaque and dark ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon based wine opens with a mild black cherry and black currant bouquet with a hint of olive and black tea. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is well-balanced, silky, and graceful. The flavor profile is a crushed stone, gentle menthol, and black licorice blend with notes of oak and black currant. We also detected a hint of black tea towards the end. The finish is quite dry, and its well-managed dusty tannins stick around for quite some time. The Tasting Panel would decant this wine for quite a while before pairing with a porterhouse steak. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: On The Nose: Complex mixture of restrained but concentrated red cherries and black plum skins, damp forest floor, sarsaparilla root, tarragon, and cocoa beans.
On The Palate: Bright and lively focused entry, red plum, gravelly soil, saddle leather, tar, underbrush, with a defined mid-palate and long, fruit-focused finish.
