Leave this open at least one hour before consuming and consume with steak. Paradigmatic California Cabernet Sauvignon. After one hour, this wine reminds me of a quality Pauillac. Elegant and sophisticated, it accompanies steak perfectly. This wine likely cannot be consumed without steak. The attack is a complex leathery mix of fruit and earth, while the finish is a tannic chewy leather and tobacco mix. Top notch. When first opened overpowering and then too acidic, so you need to wait that hour if you can. Or at least 30 minutes.
