Dramatically structured, this is a firm, full-bodied young Cab that needs time. Shows slightly astringent tannins at the moment, with Bordeaux-like acidity and a dry, spicy finish. Give it a few years to let the cassis, herb and cedar flavors emerge. Mainly Cab Sauv, with some Cab Franc and Merlot.
