This is a nice Cabernet from Napa Valley. Showing red and black fruits with earth, wood, spices, peppercorn, green herbs, tobacco and chocolates.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Needs time to open up, but good right out of the bottle.

Good by itself or with food and easy drinking. Doesn't show like a big Napa Cabernet. Very drinkable.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

88 points.

$70

Paired with grilled London broil, baby arugula salad, and roasted sweet potatoes.  Love this wine! Pleasantly surprised with the complexity and depth.
