Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon & 13% Merlot from Chiles Valley District in Napa, deep Ruby with aromas of red/black fruit, herbs and oak notes. On the palate flavors of ripe fruit, cherry and blackberry with notes of vanilla, oak, tobacco and cacao. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, sweet spice, tobacco and lively mineral notes. Nice. Tasting Sample!!

Ripe black and red cherry, red currant, baking spice, vanilla, a touch of caramel and brown sugar. M acid. M body. Long finish. Still young but drinkable and balanced.

Nice well balanced Cabernet in a restrained style. Not too flashy for a '12 but varietally correct.

Very smooth and not a touch of harshness when decanted.

We asked the waiter to bring us something red, full-bodied, and delicious around $100. It was perfect with our foie gras and steak and chocolate dessert. My rating may be skewed by atmosphere and company :)
