| Review |
"Dry, soft and creamy in texture, this polished Cabernet... has easy tannins framing herb-infused flavors of blackberries, cherries, red currants, mocha, anise and sweet, smoky oak."

| Abstract |
At release, this Cabernet bursts with dark berry aromas and a spicy fennel note, slight earthy and floral notes are there too, they become more prominent after some time in the glass. The body is lush with dark fruit flavors and a core of "sweet" tannins, a term denoting weight and velvety sensation (not sugar). The wine finishes with a long blueberry, plum and slight mocha nuances. I hope this wine reminds you why you loved Cabernet Sauvignon to begin with. |
