    There are good, dry flavors in this Cabernet. It's a little on the coarse side, but shows lots of extraction to the blackberries and black currants. The tannins are hard and firm, and not likely to age out, so drink up.

    Made from 100% Cabernet, an interesting, complex wine, showing cool climate notes of mint, cassis, cloves and blackberries. Lots of sweet ripeness underneath the tannins, and a coating of sweet, smoky oak. Decant and drink now.
