Estimate
...marked by scents of pencil shavings and cassis on the nose. Just a bit bigger and richer than the Kronos while still refreshingly moderate in alcohol (13.7%), this is more velvet than silk, with a deeper pile to the plush feel on the palate, but perhaps there's a bit less perfume and complexity. It's still a terrific Cab, elegant and finesse-filled, rather than overpowering.
Very juicy and brambly in feel, with a bright and well-defined mix of boysenberry and plum fruit flavors along with notes of applewood and licorice. Open-knit through the finish but without sacrificing depth and length. A distinctive Cabernet that relies on inner brightness rather than outward power.
