Despite some unyielding oak on the nose, this wine is juicy and good. It has a light, fast feel to it but also some serious tannins that bring the clamp down toward the finish. Raspberry and red cherry flavors are front and center, and overall it shows a touch of finesse. 60% Cab Sauvignon, 25% Carmenere and 15% Cab Franc.——M.S.(9/1/2008)—— 87
