Slightly hazy dark garnet purple with dark core. Color almost to the edge. Smooth and inviting nose of blackberries, cassis, and baking spices. Soft, mouth-filling palate echoes the nose with a wee bit more red fruit mid-palate. Medium acidity despite the overall soft feel. Low tannins and a moderate finish. A great Cab for those who prefer a softer style but still want a wine that's great with a meal. Drink now as we're already twelve years on.

Fantastic. Deep berry flavors, well tannined, bold wine. The nose smacks of rich, earthy fruits, and delivers in the palette. A celebration-worthy wine.

Lots of dried herbs, rustic tannins, and deep dark dried fruit. A touch of forest floor with noisy of the woods after a rain. Yummy all around.

Nose of vanilla and roses. Dark fruits on the mouth feel. Nice medium to long finish. I really like this wine.
