This is a lovely Cabernet. I wouldn’t describe it as a “light” Cabernet; it is not a bombastic Napa Cab to be sure. There are still beautiful fruits present with really well integrated tannins. Silky, elegant are two words that came easily to mind. Dark fruits, herbs, celery, bay leaf, thyme, all present in the lush middle and long finish. I think the drink window from the community is a wee bit short, however. There are enough fruits and tannins still playing together beautifully, I’m adding 2 years to my drink window.

Easily drinkable but very light in body and flavor.

WineLA event: Cabernet College (Downtown Los Angeles): Tasted blind. Color is on the lighter side. Not as impressive compared to the wines tasted tonight but still very good.
