TASTING NOTE: A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, this opens with ripe dark berry and baking spice scents. The dense palate delivers black currant, tobacco and mocha flavors, fleshed out by round tannins. Drink through 2020. Score - 89 (Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, April 1, 2017) |
