Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 90
Aromas of roasted cherry, blueberry compote, dark chocolate, and purple flowers waft on the nose of this Cabernet. The palate feels lifted and juicy, with lively acid, lighter tannins, and buoyant flavors of fresh raspberries, chopped mint, and cinnamon that echo all along the finish.
