WINEMAKER'S NOTE
This is a dark big deeply flavored Cabernet whose tannic structure strongly suggests mid- to long-term aging. Bone dry it has flashy flavors of black currants dark chocolate and cedar. Very fine. Best 20102015 if not longer in a proper cellar. 93 points 2009 Wine Enthusiast Buying Guide.
