A showcase of Cabernet Sauvignon cultivated on a warmer site. The color is opaque with seductive aromas of dark cherries, black plums, warm spices, and crème de cassis. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, textured, and engaging. An inkling of sweetness is palpable from the French oak with layers of blackberries, graphite, and a tinge of holiday spices. A beautiful finish carried by the fruit concentration and dissolved round tannins helps to balance the natural acidity.
