Rich taste of aged wine initially hides the taste of cab, I wondered if I didn't know, would I be able to guess the varietal? With some aeration, more balanced flavors came through. Tannins? An afterthought. Fruit? Unsweetened blackberry pie. A little malty too.

nose: vanilla, some red cassis, a little spice Palate: full, starts off slow but the mid palate is full and lush and the finish is decent. Would buy again.

Bitter-tart fruit initial taste, dry in the back of the throat then finishes clean, with a slight bitter memory. Balanced red wine aroma.
