Wine Review: This dark ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Duckhorn opens with a cassis and eucalyptus bouquet with hints of wet stone, cedar, and cola. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is well-balanced, smooth, and polished. The flavor profile is cedar and blackberry blend with notes of clay, cola, and tobacco. We also detected some hints of Earl Grey tea, sage, and baking spices. The finish is dry and its refined tannins drift away nicely. The Tasting Panel would pair this Cabernet Sauvignon with a filet mignon or with a rack of lamb. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: This luscious wine beckons with beautiful blue and black fruit aromas, as well as seamlessly integrated hints of French oak, cinnamon, and licorice. On the palate this bright and juicy Cabernet Sauvignon reveals layers of blueberry, blackberry, and dried cherry, with notes of graphite and clove emerging on the lush, focused finish.
