Notes (from winemaker's website, also wine.com): Our Cabernet Sauvignon is medium-bodied in style with ripe dark fruit flavors complemented by hints of dusty vanilla, leather, anise, and cocca powder. This wine has a balanced acidity and finishes with fine, firm tannins.
My tasting notes: Aromas of cherries very apparent. On the palate, I thought the cherries predominated. A little tart right out of the freshly opened bottle, smoother over the next few days. Nice enough finish with some tannins, not as smooth on the after palate as some cabernet sauvignons that I have had. I tasted this wine alone and with cheese. Above average overall, but a bit pricey (especially at list) for the overall experience.
