Not Samantha's SB, which happens to be one of my favorites. This amazing Estate Cab Sauv based is just re-released. Amazing herbal and spice with a deep, full mid-palate. Dark berries with loads of tea and tobacco notes that dances on my palate...
Full, but not heavy... just enough bottle age and enough fruit...thinking to have Braised Pork Belly and Lentils...keeping it simple... — 8 years ago
