The wine possesses aromas of intense black fruit. The mouth explodes with red cherry, black cherry, though restrained and elegant, there is bright fruit, raspberry and a dusting of cocoa. Try this important red with seared, though rare, beef

Milky med ruby, some heat on nose, high-toned fruit (faint), some oak, b3, a3, t2+, a bit harsh & disjointed on palate, barely passable, d2, black currant, mossy wood, cedar, toasty charred wood, decent mouthfeel, good simple flavors, acidity still shart on finish (4.5)

Vineyardgate Wine Tasting: "Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Malbec." Good color; and legs. Oak and tobacco in the nose. Strong mouthfeel. 4-10-14-7: 85/100. Hiroko scored it 91/100.
