A great value in a big, full-bodied red,, and one that has the complexities of far more expensive ones. It combines fruity plums and cherries with deeper, darker expressions of earth, cured leather and bitter chocolate. There’s also a spicy streak of white pepper. Very dry, with smooth, rich tannins.

Light in body, but fresh and clean, this was a surprise performer in our last round of tastings. Herbal overtones to the cedar, cherry and tobacco notes are correct from a flavor standpoint, but note that this wine doesn’t have the stuffing to pair with hearty, traditional Cabernet pairings.
