Winery Review: This Cabernet Sauvignon shows very good purity of fruit and skillful winemaking. This wine is full of black-fruit aromas, depth and style. The palate pushes ripe plum and berry fruit along with chocolate, and the finish is chewy and correct in terms of tannins and structure.

My Review: This wine is surprising. Immediately, the aromas of fragrant black currants and dark chocolate and gogi berries come through. This wine has a smoky, dusty quality to it. I am able to taste a hint of canned green beans. The creamy mouthfeel makes this wine seem as if it has been aged in oak.

With food?: I tasted this wine without food.
