Chocolatey with dark fruit and a bit of spice. The heat seems pretty subdued for 14.8%

Dark purple in color, dark fruits on the nose. High alcohol content Went well with steak. Not the best Cab I have had but okay.

Very pronounced vanilla and new oak elements. So dark that it's far from translucent, but not overly extracted or syrupy on the palate. Dark fruit, vanilla, red pepper (tasted this in the merlot too, must be their terroir?), And some baking spices. Tannins hold it together as the acidity is very low.

Immediate cinnamon and baking spices-- which mellowed after the first glass.
