TASTING NOTES:
The Cabernet Sauvignon boasts incredible aromatics with a very forward nose bringing fresh ripe red fruits, with a backbone of dark spices, from the 100% new French oak. There is a striking aromatic presence, with flavor profiles that lean towards darker and denser fruit extractions. The deep purple color teases the richness of flavor to come, with the lovely bouquet bursting at every swirl.
The depth and complexity of the nose is confirmed in the mouth with luscious black raspberry, blueberry, minerals, dense black cherries and ripe plums. Experience a wonderful bright freshness from this fruit-forward offering, showing a good acid balance and soft tannins with a full body and good weight in the mouth. Perfect for drinking now or saving for a special celebration in the next 10 years.
