The subtle aromas of dark toned fruit, cardamom and the
spicy fragrance of a redwood grove hint at the depth and complexity discovered
with the first sip. The palate presents layers of delicious flavors caressed by
a firm yet supple structure of softening tannins and toasty oak. Cassis,
mulberry and tart black cherry merge with bittersweet chocolate, kid glove
leather, and traces of orange peel and forest floor that appear as the flavors
linger.
A pairing of a classic beef Bourguignon, or venison
backstrap pinwheel rolls will bring out the best in this superb Cabernet.
