This bottle retails for about forty bucks and is a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Cab Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot.Vanilla, cherry, and plum on the nose....blueberry and strawberry are deep in there as well.
I know it's a dumb thing to say, but this is smooth....blueberry, black cherry, vanilla, eucalyptus - all nicely integrated, nothing dominates, not overly oaky, nice balance, just a flat out nice California Cab dominated blend.
Black cherry and eucalyptus lingers, with some cinnamon and clove on the finish.
I dig it. Forty bucks? I still dig it.
Score: 92
