Winery Review: 91 Points - Wine Spectator: " This racy, supple Cabernet boasts a pure core of raspberry, cassis and black cherry coulis notes fortified by bright acidity and a firm, minerally backbone. Long, offering fine tannins and an aftertaste of crushed berries and graphite. Drink now through 2016."
Personal Review: This blended wine smelled like plums, raspberries, blackberries, and grapes. It tasted a little nutty, was sour and very dry. I thought it would pair nicely with either a creamy or sharp cheese, such as blue cheese or goat cheese. It also tasted like cherries and black pepper. I liked this wine but it was a little too bold for me. I did not have this wine with any food.
