Lower alcohol delicious Cabernet. Expresses elegance. Lighter in color

Fairly basic label. Back label says sustainable winery. Bottle is heavy duty. Good for the 10 years it’s been in there. Dark color in the glass. Smells a hint resinous, but there is a layer of rich, ripe fruit as well. Flavors are big. Chocolate and mocha to pair with the berries and licorice stuff. This is a decent Cab from the Paso region.

Lovely, one of the few Cabs that can be consumed alone.

Tasting excellent, great expression of fruit, could cellar for a couple more years even!

One of my favorites from Paso Robles...intense strawberry on the nose and palate, good use of oak, medium tannins
