Wine description | A relatively temperate year, gave us these unusually well-balanced Cabernet grapes that we think we picked at optimal ripeness. The aromatics are dominated by soaring, high-pitched aromas of cassis, salted licorice, and violet. At this point, the wine is still very primary, showing dense black fruit with hints of camphor and underbrush. There is a sweetness as it enters the mouth, but this is held in check by firm tannins and acid. |
