Sweeter than I like, especially for a Cab. Decent pairing with a salty dinner.

A dark inky purple colour done in a traditional California Cabernet Sauvignon style with notes of blueberry, blackberry, mocha and cedar. A hint of vanilla on the approach with moderate tannins and a clean finish. Paired with a steak sandwich and garlic fries.

Good wine but not for me. Too sweet. A drinkable cabernet. Dark purple color. Very oaky aroma. Med to full body. Low acidity. Long finish. Sweet. Interesting flavor of plum.
