Napa Valley, California, USA
Great presentation of a Bordeaux blend out of California!! 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, and some Cabernet Franc and Merlot, and aged 33 months in a French oak. This produces a very elegant blend with an amazing showcase of blackberries and red fruits, with a tobacco, creme de casis, and mocha to please the nose and coax it into earthy aromas and toasted oak. It's still called a cabernet bc it's above 75% Cab Sauv but it's clearly more old world left bank Bordeaux in style! Silky smooooooth.

V10. Lots of good things going on here. Black licorice and cedar bouquet. Big black pepper, blackberry and very slight green pepper fruit. Nice tannins that will continue to soften. Wine is very good now, but will continue to open.

Smooth, softer than most Cabernet. Really like the berry and fruity of the body
