Rating for United States-California-Central Coast: 94 (excellent)<br/><br/>Drinkability: young, aging quickly, could be good now<br/>

Medium to dry deep, dense and concentrated, this Cabernet even smells dark. Expressive aromas of fresh blackberry, rich vanilla mingle with subtle notes of thyme and cinnamon. Merging with engaging flavors of blackberry, black plum and just a hint of black olive.

good wine. smooth, not fruity, but it's not missed too much, because it's very easy to drink.
