Wine Review: This opaque and very dark purple colored wine is very approachable Cab that you would enjoy with an Angus burger with friends. It opens with a moderate black raspberry bouquet with a hint of red cherry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and juicy. The flavor profile is a gentle and easy going black cherry and black raspberry blend. The finish is dry and its moderate tan nins are well managed and linger nicely. It would make a nice glass pour. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: "Opens with deep black cherry, blackberry and cassis flavors. Intense, round and well-structured tannins provide a strong backbone throughout the middle. Cedar and vanilla notes linger on the finish, beckoning another sip." — Randy Ullom, Winemaster
