A signature Cabernet from our Oakville Estate. Rich with dark, blue fruits, a touch of cocoa on the nose and firm, ripe tannins. Supple enough to enjoy now, but an excellent choice for your cellar, too. Good now, but a definite keeper for those who choose to cellar their wines.
Aroma: Enters with sweet black cherry, cassis, black currant jam, and red raspberry with a hint of anise. Honeysuckle, tobacco and the suggestion of forest floor add dimension, along with cedar and spicy nutmeg from the French Oak.
Palate: Intense at entry with bright, sweet currant, blackberry and cassis. Hints of dark chocolate and licorice add complexity to the dark fruits. The flavors build into a rich, full-bodied mid palate with a mouth feel that is both substantial and harmonious. Round, polished tannins linger on the finish.
Equally at home with a New York strip or an artisan cheese course, this is assuredly a food-lover’s cabernet.
