This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 16 months in French oak exhibits a dense ruby/purple color in addition to a classic Cabernet nose of cedar, cigar smoke, spice, black currants, and new oak. Although it borders on being internationally-styled, there is no doubting its wealth of fruit, impeccable harmony, sweet tannin, and long finish. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2016.
