This wine is vibrant dark purple with a fuchsia rim. The nose is expressive, with aromas of red fruit, cassis and toast. The wine is full-bodied, packed with flavors of boysenberry, raspberry and black cherry, along with notes of sweet tobacco, cedar and vanilla. Supple tannins carry through to a lingering finish.

Jeb DunnuckThe 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon (87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, and 5% Cabernet Franc) offers plenty of charm in its dark currant and black raspberry fruits, iron, and herbal aromas and flavors. This fleshy, rich, medium to full-bodied effort has tons of fruit, good balance, and plenty of character. It should keep for a decade or more.

Wine SpectatorWarm blueberry, açaí berry and blackberry puree flavors form the core. Polished in feel, with melted licorice and sweet tobacco accents hanging on the finish. Drink now through 2024. 10,000 cases made.

Wine EnthusiastBlended with 8% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc, this wine opens in a tartness of acidity as layers of dried herb, leather and black cherry develop. The texture is soft and simple, making the full-bodied concentration approachable.
