Wine Review: The bouquet of this wine has cherry aromas and is quite inviting. On the palate, the wine is rich, flavorful, and intense. The wine is very nicely balanced. The berry flavors extend throughout. The finish is extended and delightful. This is a great Cabernet Sauvignon. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Deep ruby red in color with wide-open aromas of black cherry, cassis and chocolate. Flavors match the nose with emphasis on ripe fruit from our estate vineyard. The mouthfeel is big, lush and round with barely-there silky tannins. Lots of nuance as well; hints of tobacco and sweet toasty French oak keep you going back for another sip. ¯ Heidi Peterson Barrett, winemaker
