Very nice wine. I wish it had a little more length as it tends to dry out before it gets there but I like it.

Blackberry, cola, leather, bramble. There's a flavor I can't place, yellow plum, pluot? Very nice wine.

Deep color strong legs. Solid Cabernet with hints of dark berries. Excellent wine to complement with steak dinner
