October 18, 2013 - This is a great Cabernet somewhere between new world Napa and Old world Bordeaux. While it has a hint of Verdot in the finish which also adds a hint of spice and alcoholic heat the only detractor away from nearing the magical 100 points would be the finish. A light nose with chalk and a hint of cassis. Very smooth and light velvet. Great with cheese and too drinkable without a heavy meal. Quite a treat.
