Wine Review: A flavorful red blend from Cline, this wine is a deep ruby color and opens with dark cherry, vanilla and floral aromas, with a touch of smokiness and green herbs on the nose. It is fruit forward, extracted and very smooth, with a medium plus body and medium acidity. The flavors are dark cherry, ripe plum, dark chocolate and black pepper. The tannins are moderate and the finish drifts away nicely. You could sip this on the porch at your cabin in the woods or pair with some steak tips. – Mark

Winemaker Notes: Cashmere Black is an inky purple colored wine that is full-bodied and complex wine. It features blueberry, plum and violet aromas followed by juicy cherry, vanilla and coffee flavors leading to a rich, round and lengthy finish.
