This wine expresses the lush, concentrated fruit character that is typical of the Cabernet Sauvignon grown on the sttep, terraced slopes of Mount Veeder. Intense flavors of blackberry and plum are enriched with notes of chocolate, spice and cinnamon. Refined tannins add texture and depth. Alcohol: 13.5% by Volume
