TASTING NOTE: This is a nicely youthful, fruit style of cabernet with jammy blackberry/currant fruit plus tea and light, spicy oak. It's medium weight, quite juicy and warm with quite light tannin considering it's cabernet. An approachable style that avoids confection. The length is good to very good. Best now to 2019.
