...flamboyant style...tons of cassis and blackberry fruits intermixed with lots of leafy herbs, tobacco, and a Graves-like gravelly minerality...full body, building tannins, and a layered, concentrated style...
...hits the palate with serious density and pure power... Bold, powerful and sumptuous... Blackberry jam, licorice, crème de cassis and licorice add substantial weight and substance on this striking Cabernet Sauvignon.
...fascinating iron and stone aromas with dark fruit. Blue fruits and oyster, too. Full-bodied, round and tight with tannins that just melt into the wine.
...opens with classic crème de cassis, baked plums and blackberry pie scents plus nuances of Indian spices, cigar box and potpourri. Full, super concentrated and built like a brick house, it has a firm frame of ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness matching the densely packed layers, finishing with great length and depth.
...well-endowed, with a deep well of cassis, blackberry paste and plum preserve notes filling up the core, while licorice, fresh tobacco and sage flavors, along with roasted apple wood and cedar elements, form the frame. There's a lovely tug of dark earth throughout. Long finish.
