Very expressive and deep on the nose, with an alluring aged quality. Aromas of vanilla, coconut and bitter chocolate are laced with a slight hint of eucalyptus and prune. Starting with some floral notes, the medium to full-bodied palate evolves through flavors of dark chocolate, coffee grounds, blackcurrant and mint. Supple, well rounded with excellent balance and just the right amount of grip.

Pleasant medium-body dark fruited cab. Simple and straightforward with little else but the fruit. Enough tannin and acid to keep things in check. Very good value for $10, OK value for $20.

Intense nose of ripe black cherry, blackberry and cedar. Full bodied with firm tannin and concentrated flavors of ripe dark berries and vanilla.
