Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Aromas of chocolate-covered cherries combine with delicate hints of red chili and bell pepper. The bright cherry nose flows on the palate and marries wonderfully with flavors of black pepper, baking spices, and just a touch of vanilla reminding you of freshly baked cherry pie cooling on the windowsill. While this Cabernet Sauvignon may seem more delicate, it combines bright acidity with big, rounded tannins that lend to a long lingering finish that could hold up to any steak dinner.
