TASTING NOTE: For Cabernet, the aromas are surprisingly blue and purple fruited, almost smelling more like a Syrah. Putting that aside, it brings a lot of appeal with a real sense of freshness to the fruit flavors. The tannins seem a bit bunched up at present, needing a little more time to stretch out. Still, it provides plenty of enjoyment. Score - 89 (Sean P. Sullivan, Wine Enthusiast, Sept. 1, 2017) |
