Tasting Notes:
A great but for this price point.   Drinks well now or cellar for a few more years.  Big fruit similar to most traditional cabs.
 
Tannins are well integrated and balanced.  Nose of dark fruits, leather with just a hint earthiness.  Nice clean lasting finish allows this wine to be enjoyed by most.
