  Deep dark coloring. Dark fruit on the nose. Plums and black cherries. Very smooth with nice uncomplicated finish. Paired well with a ribeye. I do not think this is one that will age for long, drinking nicely now. Decanted for roughly 3 hours. Day 2 was even smoother.

  Dark purple garnet colored, medium bodied, elegantly balanced, smooth polished wine, aromas and flavors of black fruits - nicely integrated blackberry, black currant and black cherry fruits accented by subtle tones of mocha, tea, sweet oak and spice turning to smooth polished silky tannins on the lingering finish.

  Dark garnet color with aromatic tobacco, blackberry, cassis, and spice aromas. On the palate it's medium-bodied plus, and fresh with an alluring texture and polished tannins with cassis, blackberry, black cherry, vanilla, spice and hint of a leathery savory component with a long finish.

  Medium bodied, lighter, fresher, forward style of California Cabernet Sauvignon with a red fruit character for early drinking.
