Nose: plum, mint, dark berries, and mineral/earthy tones. Taste: Prominent tannins with big flavor of figs and berries and a structured finish. Highly recommend to allow to open for at least 15 minutes in glass.

Blackberry and plum with hints of minerals, spicy tannins and a slight hint of spearmint. A great medium bodied cab to sip alone or with food (red meat, spicy food). Allow to sit in room temperature (uncorked or decanted) for at least a good half hour to 45 minutes to allow to open to its full potential.

Nose: bell peppery and chocolate. Taste: Red cherries, earthy are the prominent characteristics. Minerals and lead on the finish along with dark cocoa, espresso. Great earthy flavor continues throughout the palette.
